Thank you, Rich for this blog post which was brought to our attention several weeks ago. I re-read it again this morning and appreciate so very much your tribute to my husband, but also, the lesson in this for everyone. I needed to “hear” this encouragement again – especially today. It seems that you have been a blessing to many, Rich, and I pray God’s blessings over you and your family.

Thank you!

Thanks guys for your heartfelt comments. And all the thanks goes to Jerry H. on this one, he’s the guy that shared the lesson with me in the first place.

Julie, thanks also for sharing some depth to your personal story. That is so special that you found the writings from your mom, and that you in turn have been writing as well.

Raz, you inspire me! I love to write, too, and do it far less than I’d like. I don’t blog, I just write to capture my thoughts, notions, impressions, and what I’m learning at different points in my journey of life. Sometimes I write things for others to read in a local newsletter or for church. Mostly I keep it all to pass down to my sons. The inspire me to write. My dad died when I was just 7, I barely knew him. I would like for my kids to know me if my life were cut short. My mom died last summer and I was close to her. In going through her belongings, I discovered a number of things she had written, and it touched my heart deeply. I understood her at a level deeper than a conversation or spending time with her. I got a glimpse of her perspective and her private thoughts. And I could “hear” her voice through her writings.

I’ve been blogging too, for over a year now. I don’t understand the expectations that bloggers are supposed to post once a day. I’ve been averaging once a week and it’s still difficult to motivate. I think blogging a lot (more than a couple of times a week)is like a musician having to come out with new albums every year to satisfy their label. Often the music can sound forced, uninspired.
I say, relax Raz. Don’t be so hard on yourself. Muses come and go, but they’ll always come back. Besides, it’s hard for us to read that many blogs. When someone posts a lot, I lose track and sometimes interest in keeping up with them all.

Alright, well it’s rare that I’m going to be the first person to comment on my own posting. BUT, let me say this…

I feel so much better after having posted that last entry. It’s like a huge weight has been lifted off my shoulders, first acknowledging my blogging-dry-spell, but also just getting an entry done. I’ve been thinking about it for ten days and spent considerably more mental energy thinking about doing it than I would have had I just gotten off my tail and done it.

So, there. I feel better. And I hope you do something you’ve been postponing so you can feel better, too, while making progress to your own goal.
