Re: Destiny S/Claire J
[Time fuzz! due to current magic craze.]
Claire,
I like the name. Claire makes me think of clarity. Clarity like crystal balls you can see through and perfectly faceted gemstones. Diamonds are too obvious, and anyway, I think quartz has more personality.
I've never done very well with being the center of attention either. Why do you think that is so for you? I always felt a discomforting level of focus, a sort of expectation that I not only wouldn't be able to live up to but also wouldn't even know where to begin to try to live up to.
Innocence made me want to keep a diary again. I've looked back on old entries many times and actually been charmed by the naivete with which I approached so much of my life then. I expect that if I keep one now, I can do the same thing when I'm much older down the road.
My name is Destiny. I don't think we've met. Knowing your name doesn't change anything, just gives me some insight, or should I say clarity?, into who you are. More accurately, theories on who you might be. I don't know why sex should be such a defining factor in my speculations, but it really is.
Would it be similar to people who aspire to go scuba diving? I would like that.
