2005 September

Wow, my last post woke up the comment section on this blog. I still marvel that people love to comment when they have a criticism but usually stay quiet when they think or feel something positive. I wonder why that is? I'm no exception. What is even more interesting to me is that the people that commented that I was a “bitch” or uncaring… um how do they think I perceive them when they leave comments like that? It just tells me they are even less important than I am in the big scheme of things. At least I own my feelings and sign my name to them. I will say I appreciate all the comments that provoked thought especially Greg Hugh's; those are the comments I yearn for. The kind that challenge my thinking in someway. Thank you Greg for showing me a different side of “the system.” Telling me I'm bitchy doesn't provoke thought or change therefore it is a meaningless comment to me unworthy of reply. I'll think on that one awhile and see if I change my mind. I think the right thing to do is change the bad feelings so on that note here's a little joy coming your way.

“She sends me spinning” is a beauty of a post by a woman who embodies many qualities I admire and hope to convey in my daily life. In her post Julie shows us a glimpse of a moment in her life with her daughters. What a wonderous love filled, joyful moment to have captured on video. So cheers to you and yours and to”spreading a little love.” I hope Julie's post makes you smile like it made me smile.
