Talking just to hear my head roar……that’s what I thought I had been doing lately with this blog. After 90 posts (a tiny number in the real blogging world, but monumental for me) I was begining to feel like a broken record, with very little of substance to report. Nothing seemd funny enough, or profound enough, or even of interest enough to put down.
Besides, to be honest this had begun as a completely self-indulgent journal, a narcissistic way of processing my life’s happenings….just for “fun”. I hadn’t intended it to be more than that. And lately, I’ve been remiss…. gotten completely distracted and let the blog slide.
Then today, completely out of the blue I received the comment, “I miss you.” Who knew that these three simple words could have such a profound effect. I guess I forgot that anyone was really “listening’. Thanks, Yara, wherever you are, for that simple acknowledgement……It reminded me how much we all want to feel that our presence matters in some (even) small way….and that our absence would be noted.
Who are you missing?
Then tell ‘em already……..
