That is the question?
I have nothing to say any more... What I had planned out for the next several days has been disgarded because my ideas were already blogged by another (i missed this because I was too busy to even check my e-mails for a whole month).
So, any way... unless someone has some amazing ideas for blogs, this one will probably be the last one for a longgggggggggggggggg time..........................

As writers, we need to draw from our experiences and find ways to infuse who we are into the stories we tell. Julia Cameron, the author of the Artist's Way, states: "We must write from love and we must choose those to read us who read from love: the love of words. The love of naming our experience must finally be the guiding force in what we put on the page."

If you stop blogging, then I will have less opportunities to procrastinate and do something other than what is on my list!!! BLOOOOOOGGGG! PLEASE!!
Jen's right.
Think of your blog as a gentle message sent to the Universe--like a note in a bottle cast into the sea. You may never know who gets the message, or that it does make a difference in their lives (or at least their day--or at least one positive moment in their day).
We all like instant gratification--i.e. comments--but in many cases, I have nothing to add, and so I merely "check-in" saying something inane, just so that the blog writer knows I was there.
Some of Dad's blogs have been so long and so convoluted (or so it seems to me) that I have occasionally resorted to scanning down to the next paragraph . . . all the way to the "bottom line." I suspect that everyone (at some time or another) does that to long blogs or to blogs that require too much effort (read thinking).
So, keep sending out your blogs. We all win some and lose some.
Actually, sometimes it's the little things, like some of the stuff Jen mentioned, that makes the blogs more endearing. It provides a way to get to know each other and communicate in a way different than we might otherwise do.
