The Kindness of Acquaintances

It doesn't matter that I've been a hypocrite? It doesn't matter that no one really knows me (except maybe Ray)?

I don't know what to say. Many of you have left some very nice replies to my last two pathetic blog entries. Thank you.

I had a very strange coincidence happen tonight. I watched an episode of xxxHolic called Self-mutilation. The main point of the story was that happiness has a cost (e.g. more responsibility) and some people choose to avoid that cost by avoiding happiness. Then I read the kind comments that encouraged me to continue writing.

Am I trying to avoid happiness? Perhaps I am.

I'm still afraid of seeing my stories get few votes and comments. I feel like I'm being ignored. But what if I post my stories with comments off? Does posting stories with comments off also turn off the voting mechanism? Please tell me it does. I think I can continue posting stories if I don't have to worry about getting any comments or votes.
