Walls

Last week I had a comment on my blog wondering if there was anything I wasn't good at. Oh sure, there is plenty, let me tell you that. But one thing I am really good at is walls. Yup, walls. I put them up, leave them up, don't take 'em down. When they are up I don't allow anyone in. Even better yet the walls are really good at keeping any type of emotion I wouldn't want others to see. Oh, I'll let you see the fun Carin. Crazy Carin. Daring Carin. Maybe even loving Carin. But there is a lot I keep hidden behind my walls. I wish I didn't but it's just who I am.

Most of the time I bet you think I am like this little punk: We could call me strong Carin. While that is pretty true, I will go so far as to say I am strong, there is so much more to me. I AM strong but sometimes I feel like this....

..... Like I've been beat up, tossed around, thrown to the ground... exhausted

So, this is me. Attempting to bring down the walls. Well, maybe just one wall for now.
