Obviously, there are some things that shouldn't be on an entry. Such things like amount of money made or in the bank. Also, there is things like what you think of some diarists. Even if its good, I think you got to be really careful. You don't want to show how much you favor one over the other. I think that creates problems or feelings of alienation.

Then, there are things that many don't put on diaries that they should. I probaly stop reading a few diaries because it was obvious the author isn't really saying as much as they could. I mean, keeping an idenity of yourself or someone you know is ok. However, I find that diarist often don't put out the whole story. Certain things just don't add up. You know this is true when the diarist never puts a negative thing about themselves but always puts negative things about others. So yeah, that's a pet peeve of mines.

If your name is to the left of my diary, then your ok. People there are friendly, open and honest. Usually they don't leave a lot of things out.

As for myself, I find that over the years, I have been a lil more guarded. I try not to dicuss things that can be used against me. Also, I find that I am biased towards myself and take my side. *grin* I'm usually right in the fights I write about, but often wrong in the fights I don't write about. LOL. Funny when you think about it. Anyways, I always find myself balancing what I should write and what is better kept in my head. GTG
