Blogging ups and downs

Apart from spewing verbal diarrhea all over the internet (which releases a lot of internal tension hence good for health), I love blogging because it gives my heart a good workout (again, good for health).

Yes, thumpety-thump-thump……my heart aches tremendously and cries out loud when I read of stabbingly painful sadness (Katie, you are an incredibly brave woman for sharing this and I thank you so much for doing so as it not only creates awareness and helps a lot of people attempt to understand similar circumstances but you could be saving lives, real lives. And I hate that people even dare judge you – please, please don’t feel hurt by them, they have no clue and karma will come a calling. I’m sure you’re converting all that pain into love for Baby G right now).

And then my heart goes into anxious palpitations when I read of the struggles of a Mom with a child who is ill, the stress, the mental, physical and fiscal exhaustion they have to endure as a family and I can relate because she is the same age as T1. I told T1 about her and she would like to meet her and be friends with her.

My heart melts into a calm of wonderment and mush when I read about myself. Myself??? Yeah, me! I wasn’t excited when I read it, rather very, very, VERY touched (thank you again, Claire). Claire is a wonderful mother of teenagers (oh, that may make her sound a little older but I can assure you her mind is as fresh as cold, sweet strawberries, how she was in her twenties!) whom I will go to when I have children problems as she is way more experienced than I am. She works doubly hard (as she lost her husband many years ago, though he is always with her and her children in spirit) with a day job AND a night job (writing) towards an early retirement so she can shake her booties so please help support her in doing so. There is much to learn from Clair if you take your time to browse her blog.

And last but not least, my heart just this week released a million bursts of hearts all over my bloodstream when a blogging Mom offered to send me money to tie us over, to pay for us to have a holiday and to help the Hubs find a new job. I mean, how is that possible? Many people have commented that I have a big heart (and I owe this completely to my mother, she threatened me with the cane and said GROW YOUR HEART because really, I’d rather be selfish!) but you don’t know what a big heart is till you’ve met this person. I’m completely blown over. A blog friend. I think I’m loving my blog friends more these days……..with no intention of forsaking my non-blog friends whatsoever.

Blogging. It has changed my life, for better not for worse.
