You Noticed?

March 8, 2010 | By | |

Yes, after a few months of being quiet I suddenly feel like the fog is lifting and I want to talk again.  So if you’ve noticed that I’m suddenly blogging again…you aren’t mistaken.  I’m just doing it a bit differently and still kind of ‘going with the flow’ of whatever is on my mind, or when I have time. In other words I’m back but things might still look a little different.

I can’t say that the process of what I’ve been dealing with lately hasn’t been without side effects. My normally happy and optimistic nature has been…well…not so happy or optimistic much of the time.  The idea of sharing what I was going through was very difficult for me.

Honestly not because of pride, but because it felt wrong somehow that my normally encouraging and uplifting blog would be tarnished by difficulties beyond my ability to completely explain or handle in every day life.  To be in a place in my life where I didn’t feel like I had anything encouraging to offer was foreign and frustrating for me.

I’m not going to tell you that I’m back to “normal”, in a way I’m not sure if I ever will be. I don’t mean that in a negative way, but everything we go through in life will shape us and transform us just a little (or a lot). But the constant haze I was in seems to have faded a bit, the light at the end of the tunnel is finally visible and while I still have bad days, there are good ones now too.

Thank you all so much for standing by me through this…I have great friends, many of which simply email me when they read posts here and I appreciate you all.  I wish you all great blessings today!!!

Hugs…

    I cannot say I understand what you are going through but can say I had gone through a few experiences recently that kept me from keeping up my blog. I am back as well but like you are saying, just not quite back to normal yet. Some good days and some not so much.

    I don’t think we are alone when life steps in the way and I do believe your readers will understand.

    My thoughts will be with you while you work your way back and wish you nothing but the best.

    I think we all have things that overwhelm us at times. But getting through it allows us to become so much stronger. ~hug~ I don’t know what you’ve been going through, but I hope things look up and keep looking up.
