One of the cool things about chucking your thoughts at the interwebz is the camaraderie and support you get from other bloggers. There’s a whole virtual neighborhood out here – it’s a place where you can actually pick your neighbors, no less! – and you’ll find a huge variety of folks: Some just like you and some completely different. Some old enough to be a grandparent and some young enough to be your grandchild. Some who write for the love of writing and some who write so they don’t implode, crumbling and falling under the weights they carry. Some who suffer deeply, some who uplift and shed light everywhere they go, and some who manage to do both.
I am honored to meet you. And you have no idea how much GOOD you are doing, simply by being here. You can’t know how much it means when you simply click, “Like.” It means I’ve been heard. I’m valid. And maybe, if I’m lucky, something I wrote resonated with you.
I get so much more from this community than I give. And today, I see that the very talented cassandrarei has nominated me for the Very Inspiring Blogger Award. She inspires ME every time she posts!
