when i first started blogging i had a secret hope that it would not only keep me connected to family and friends but that it would also connect me to new friends. i am meeting the most interesting people from my blogging adventures. and on Tuesday i am getting together with Kirsten the author of the blog AreWeThereYet . she found my blog and we not only live in the same town but we are of the same faith and that's cool!
i am finding reading about other peoples lives not only fun and often fascinating but also comforting. i can hardly explain is as i feel i live on an island most days. since moving here a year ago i have yet to really connect with anyone, with the exception my friend Debbie who has been a priceless gift to me and my family. in addition to Debbie i have people who want to be my friend and have tried reaching out but i don't feel drawn to them. i know i need to open myself up to the possibilities of friendship on a deeper level with a few people who are trying to befriend me...but i find myself on stall (for lack of a better explanation).
so i am VERY excited about my new friend Kirsten and getting to meet her on Tuesday, even though it already feels as if we have met. i think that happens when you read from another persons heart...blogs tend to be a safe place to share...and i REALLY like that! i am going to try and be more brave and share more.
