Go For It

I think I need to just write. Too many people try to sound too good on virtual paper....emails, blogs, etc. I hope I'm not caught up in that trap. I wonder who writers are trying to impress. I wonder who or what it was that told them they had to impress anyone. I must admit I do enjoy reading emails from people who can write from the heart and tell it like it is from their standpoint. Such a shame if one is afraid of losing friendship or a connection because they are not being themselves. I catch myself doing that from time to time.

We are all ants on this great big ant hill. All of us day after day milling about doing what we do, changing, never in the previous state again.

OK...now to go back and read this and see if it sounds right.

In The Beginning

Someone once wrote to me "you have much grist for an interesting blog." Well, whether or not it is true, here I am.

One day, a friend of mine looked at me with a wrinkled up face and squinty eyes, her voice in a distasteful tone, "Why do people write blogs?"

I wanted to reply in my usual blunt retort, "Why do you talk?"
