Into the ether.........!

We sit at our desks
our kitchen benches,
our tables
curled up in comfy chairs
and in our beds

And

we read,
we type with passion, 
about our crafts
our families,
our decorating,
our lives
and things that catch our fancy
then we send it out into the ether!!!

It's a funny place, this blogging place
we start, not knowing what we are doing
I wonder, sometimes, if we ever know
what we are doing!

 Do we  ever stop and think
about how,  what we say, may affect someone else

There are people I have never met,  who,
because of my blogging,
 know me better than some of my long standing friends
 but we would pass each other on the street without recognition

You come from all around the world,
for a short time we meet here 

and I'm saying all this
 because...!
Because today I got an email from


to say

pssst!  You may want to visit my blog, Julienne

so I went visiting and imagine my surprise and joy
when I saw she had presented me with


Now whilst the award is lovely
it was the words she wrote that got me
totally emotional!

Karina thank you
it may take me awhile to choose someone
to pass this on to
but you have to know

YOU MADE MY DAY!
bless you



Now apparently I am supposed to tell you seven things about me
but I am going to ask your indulgence 
and tell you tomorrow because today should be about


Karina


and her generosity of spirit
 so go visit her
you will be amazed at what she has achieved



Goodnight

  1. Well said Julienne. I couldnt have said it any better, and completely agree. The blogging community is very supporting with such caring people out there. I guess the level of anonymity is what leaves it so uncomplicated and real. Congratulations on the award, well deserved for an interesting, inspiring and to the point blog. Always look forward to more.

  8. Very well written - it certainly is an odd thing, blogging. It's such a departure from my everyday life and the work I do. An outlet? A connection? An escape? I don't know - just know that it has become part of my day.

  9. Julienne, you have brought us all together as you say. Your words are inspiring and we all sit here, having coffee, tea, wine, and spend a little time with the ones we have chosen to become friends with, albeit, cyber friends

    Thank you for joining us.
