After much consideration and debate...

olde_fashionedTo all of my readers and friends,
I've been thinking about this for a long while, and after painful consideration and debate, I think it's best if I make official what most of you will probably have noticed already. Due to significant changes in my life, I've had to cut back dramatically on my internet time, and this of course affects my life on LJ. Therefore, I will be trimming down my Friends List, eliminating those who rarely/never comment, or journals that appear to be "dead", leaving communities I no longer have an interest/participate in, and so forth.
Generally I loathe that mentality where "unfriendings" are frequent and cause for taking personal offense, so while I find myself doing what others might argue is essentially the same thing, the reasons behind it are motivated by necessity as opposed to a desire to cause spiteful "drama" or hurt feelings. Truly this whole thing saddens me and I hate that I have to do it at all. :-(
So please, to everyone who finds this an LJ notification in their inbox, don't take this personally or make it dramatic when it oughtn't to be. I wish everyone well and all of the best!
