You have a wonderful way with words, and although I find that blogging is a bit of a strange world (it's a little like journal writing, but public, which I find somewhat uncomfortable), you capture what it is that keeps me coming back: there's a certain neighborliness to it, like stopping by a neighbor's house to say hello, like you say... So glad to have found my way over to your fence this morning...<br />-mariaMaria | Vintage Simplehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02046940964809245057noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6805054219581359150.post-88793980927252618532009-08-31T07:03:00.076-05:002009-08-31T07:03:00.076-05:00That was lovely.That was lovely.Jill of All Tradeshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00075357751662738806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6805054219581359150.post-30779252434281035002009-08-29T08:07:36.331-05:002009-08-29T08:07:36.331-05:00perfectly said.perfectly said.Sandra Lundyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13956886130116021414noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-6805054219581359150.post-36503196435286073252009-08-28T19:50:10.289-05:002009-08-28T19:50:10.289-05:00what a wonderful heartfelt post. loved it.

We can be crossing the street and get hit by a car driven by someone texting, etc. You get the point. Enjoy the small everyday things. Blogging brings that perspective to you, as it is your life's journal.
