In order to keep things consistent, I am closing Rue St. Divine as a personal journal. It will be attached to and used for the online store the Captain (my husband, for those of you just joining us) and I will be opening soon - maybe even this week, if we're lucky. The Rue St. Divine blog will include entries on jewelry projects I'm working on, commissions that others might find interesting, trends in jewelry-making and materials, and a variety of other topics related to the store. I've been thinking I'd also post clearance/sale news in there as well.
*THIS* blog is the outpouring blog, the wishes blog, the melancholy blog, the...frustrated-at-the-world blog. This is the blog where I try not to filter, and I try not to hide. I try to be as unadulterated in expressing my thoughts and feelings and hopes and fears - basically, the contents and products of the soul/mind complex - as possible. This is not a journal where I'll be PC or considerate; it's an outlet. I'm not going to intentionally be offensive or pejorative; it's not my intent to alienate or discriminate. I'm here, in this journal, expressing those things, those thoughts and emotions which well up and require release.
I'm a poetic soul, a philosophical soul, and - dare I say it - an artistic soul. Malice is not in my nature. Hatred is not a language I speak. What I want is a place to speak my mind and my heart without derision, and a place that others may come and read and respond and think. I hope this journal lives up to those expectations, and that those who read it might find something comforting, something inspiring, something illuminating, and something...provocative that helps them understand themselves, the world, and maybe even me a little better.
