Awareness

I have become aware of some in my life that are worried that I profess to much on this blog. To them I say, do not read it. This is an avenue for my raw feelings, ones you will never be able to understand, for you have never walked in my shoes, have never felt this pain, or loneliness or fear and I hope you never do, for it is a dreary world, when sometimes the only relief you feel is getting your words out on the screen. If you were going to judge, you should have never asked to read.

If *you* profess too much, um, well, what does that say about *me*? I think it's interesting to think that we wouldn't feel these difficult things when we experience difficult things. Odd. Well, I don't think you say too much, but then again, who am I to say. ;) Don't be bullied, though. You need to find a way to share these things. Writing has proven to be a useful tool in grieving. If people are worried, they need to remember that this is such the tip of the iceburg that they are seeing on the screen. There is a lot more to us than a simple blog. To mourn *with* someone, you would soon realize this. But when you mourn *for* someone, you aren't really able to see the whole picture. And it sometimes leaves room for unwarranted judgments. I hope things clear up for you on that front.

I am for one glad that there is a way for you to get your feelings out. I am sorry that those who have never even experienced a brief moment of the pain you deal w/daily are feeling they have the right to judge you. I know that your blog is mainly just for you to get your feelings out not for the world to see. For us to even have a brief glimpse of your pain is an opportunity to come along side of you and offer our love and comfort. I pray that people will pray for more compassion when they even think of judging you. Love ya:o)

You are honest, and my heart aches for you when I read your blog. Because you have decided to share your journey through this trial, you teach me about being human and enduring and living one day at a time - both the good days and the bad days. Thank you for being real. I am so sorry for your loss and your struggles.

I love your blog and feel honored that I get to "mourn with you". Reading what you write makes me appreciate so many simple everyday things that I would otherwise take for granted. That's what it is all about right? Hang in there and don't be afraid to let others help bear your burdens a little bit. You are strong and brave and I think you're awesome. I love you lots!!
