I have a website, after 400 hits and no feedback I think I have come to the realization it was never about me.All I want my writing to do is bless God. f it isn't going to do that, then I keep it to myself. Your writing blesses me and inspires me through 'blank' days. I often feel like my life is scraps of paper waiting to be threaded into some piece. Between the first breakfast ( sending two out at different times every morning)and the last cup of coffeesometimes afternoon, I feel like I am only wife and mother. When my mind races with ideas, I haven't as much time to write, and when I do ...well everyone knows THAT one...keep on keepin on.Lefty Sloanehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00708673264247916851noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13997414.post-1133497391911390052005-12-01T23:23:00.000-05:002005-12-01T23:23:00.000-05:00Lorie,We must get on the internet at the same time...Lorie,<BR/><BR/>We must get on the internet at the same time of night (when children are FINALLY asleep).<BR/><BR/>I love this entry. The reason I don't record people at my site is that I'm afraid to see that 8 people have read it since I started. Actually, maybe 8 is an overestimation. Thanks for being one of 8!<BR/><BR/>I do think we write because we see. And communicating what we see makes it more real.<BR/><BR/>But, don't we all want others to read what we've written? I guess we're just human.<BR/><BR/>BethC's Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00375968201150339066noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13997414.post-1133495470953225462005-12-01T22:51:00.000-05:002005-12-01T22:51:00.000-05:00Oh I understand! This performance and recognition ...Oh I understand! This performance and recognition thing is killing me with grad school too. Can't I just be there to learn?? Can't we just be here (on blogger or xanga or whatever) because writing is who we are at our core? Because it is how we make sense of the craziness around us? Because it is how we communicate with God and with ourself? Or simply because we love words? And you feel like you've got it one day and then the next day rolls around...amyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07896300213459606538noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13997414.post-1133444887317127112005-12-01T08:48:00.000-05:002005-12-01T08:48:00.000-05:00Indeed, the struggle can be intense.
