Off The Beaten Path

Some people come into our lives and quickly go. Some people move our souls to dance. They awaken us to new understanding with the passing whisper of their wisdom. Some people make the sky more beautiful to gaze upon. They stay in our lives for awhile, leave footprints on our hearts, and we are never ever the same.

Into The Depths


For those of you who have never lost anything or anyone, this post won't feel significant. But for those who have felt loss, maybe you can relate. I haven't been posting lately, and I have closed many of my blogs and interactive sites simply because I am not feeling up to keeping them going. This is strange, because most of my life writing has been therapeutic for me during times of stress or pain. But right now it doesn't feel right, nor is it of much comfort. I have never been one to feel depression or as Grandma would have called it, "being down in the dumps." But right now I am, so I will be taking a break from blogging. Each time I do this, I lose a few more friends, because if one doesn't keep up communication, people leave. I understand this, so for those who leave, I truly understand. I won't be closing my blog but I won't be doing much writing or commenting. Sorry, but I am just not in the frame of mind right now to do much talking.

Hi Pete, thank you......you are the one person I thought might understand, because maybe you are a little like me in that I can have people in my life who I care a lot about, but even though we don't talk on a frequent basis, I still care about them deeply and when I see them again it is as if time has not passed and we can begin right where we left off. I know that not everyone is like this, and if they don't here from them, they forget. But I am not like that....

I will return I am sure in time, but for right now obligations are a bit hard for me.

Love and hugs......and I mean it....

after my mom died, I didn't post for a year. I lost all but maybe 3 people I knew before in blogger land.

I will be watching and waiting, and praying for you.

Me too, the same nea.
So I understand it better than you.

Hi Burfica, that you I would hate to lose you, the handful of friends who visit me here I really truly love. And would hate like everything to lose contact, but right now it is a major effort to just get out of bed.

Hi quilly, I lost contact once before, I don't want to again, but as I have said, the arms don't want o move nor the feet, and the brain, it is totally out to lunch.

Hi Jac, then you understand, I know at some point everyone goes trhough something like this, or at least similar, but my health was already a bit fragile and now, well as I wrote you, not sure if it is the medicine they have me on or just my own body shutting down. ?

Neoma said...

Please ignore my mispelling.....

Burfica that should have said thank you......not that you. I just can't seem to write lately.

Know what you mean, Nea. You must have been going through hell recently.
Rest assured that I and most other "friends at a distance" will still be here when you come back to us. That's what friends are for.
Hunker down and take care of yourself.
Thinking of you
Mike

You do what you have to do and don't worry- I see several have said they'll still be here when you come back,and so will I.
