Getting in touch
Getting in touch with other people on their blogs is teaching me several things. Bad things happen to people. Other people deny that bad things happen. People feel isolated. There is a lot of hurt. Now this is the amazing part. Wonderfully kind people leave words of encouragement. Sharing sadness helps to feel less alone. People are out there that want to help each other and build each other up. I am meeting some amazing people on line.

Ruth, I'm so glad you're finding this little blogging community helpful. The really wonderful thing is that it works both ways as we all encourage each other. Realizing we're not alone is so validating for all!
Hugs, mulderfan
I feel the same amazement that we are not alone, that we can find one another and gain strength and support. I'm glad I found you, Ruth.
I totally agree! It is wonderful to learn you are not alone and to interact (sort of, I'm still mostly too nervous to post much of anything myself - but I sure get a lot out of reading the blogs of the brave people out there who are willing to share. It really helps me feel not so alone in my pain. Thank you, Ruth.
It helps in a way that even those closest to us cannot help.
Anon, Thanks for you encouragement.
What Remains Behind your observation really helped me view blogging in a different way. Thanks.
