Thank you

I just wanted to take a moment and say thank you.  Thank you to those of you who still check in here, even when I disappear for weeks at a time!  Thank you for your comments, for the community I experience when I hear from you.  The internet/blog world community has meant a great deal to me over the past few years, and this blog was started as a thank you to all of the others from whom I have learned so much.  It was my hope to offer a small something back, an offering in return for all I learned.  There are times when I have so much to say, and then there are the down times.  The times when silence is what is needed in my life.  There are times when the internet world lets me down.  There are times I count on others, and find out they are human too.  There are times when I look to others to lift me up, and then I realize that it is a mistake to turn to them, only communion with the one true God can lift me up.  There are times when I worry about how I present myself here.  This is not reality.  This is just a small window of my life.  And I must remind myself that other blogs only offer a small window into the lives of others.  We change.  We are not always consistent.  We are not always reliable.  So, thank you for being here.  Forgive me when I fail.  Forgive me when I contradict.  And know that I appreciate each of you who comment, who take a moment to connect.  Thank you.
