So officially I'll tell you that I'm far too busy to find time to blog. I do just about manage to share some thoughts and ideas once a month but I really don't have time to do more than this.
However, this really isn't true. The main reason I don't blog more is that when I think of the issues that are bouncing round in my mind they really don't seem to be the sort of thing that should be shared. Generally my thoughts are about the frustrations of life, the disappointments, the things that I wish were better or improved and the things that make me feel trapped and inadequate.
I've concluded that my head is a fairly negative place and sharing what's going on inside isn't terribly uplifting or helpful. I try to tweet and Facebook cheerfully but to write more than a 140 characters of cheerfulness is a little daunting sometimes!
Being this honest with myself and you must be a good thing. Is honest sharing better than not sharing? Is it better just to share that which encourages and builds others up?
On the plus side I do seem to have found some fairly positive things to say at least once a month for almost a year. A friend told me that they always remember one thing that made them smile and one kindness that they had experienced each night before going to sleep. I need to encourage her to start blogging!
So I want to express my gratitude to those who blog regularly with humour, courage and warmth - thank you!
