Other People's Stuff

Sometimes I feel as though I'm too worried about other people's stuff to write. Although it would probably be therapeutic for me to write about it a bit, I don't feel I can as I would, necessarily, be exposing other people's stuff. Exposing other people's issues, problems, and worries without their permission is really terribly wrong and, sometimes, just cruel. I don't want to harm others so I write nothing until I can figure out how to write about my feelings and worries about loved ones without exposing their vulnerabilities. You shouldn't betray those you care about even if it's only a blog. Other people's stuff needs to be handled with sensitivity--even when it gets wrapped up in your own stuff.
