Getting Back To Blogging

I’m not easily silenced. I tend to speak out when I have something to say, whether anyone wants to hear me or not. That, I suppose, would explain why I blog.

Explaining why I would stop blogging is a whole other story. At some point I may tell that story but not now. Not yet. The dust hasn’t quite settled and I’m still not sure what I should share.

I am coming back to blogging, slowly. Even though I can’t yet share the events of these past several months, I still have much to say. Despite all the drama around here, regular life has continued. Kids in school, a new grandchild, parents getting older… Even in the midst of upheaval, life goes on.

As I mentioned a long time ago in this blog

“It isn’t so much the ups and downs that have me in such distress; it’s the jolt that I’m never expecting. I’ve learned to close my eyes at the end of the climb and hold my breath as I plummet to the bottom. I just can’t shake the shock of being blind sided.”

This last jolt was a big one. I didn’t see it coming. It’s the kind of thing that happens to someone else’s family, not your own. Except it did happen to my family.

So now I’m going to try to be normal again. I’m going to pick up the pace and blog about the family here, favorite websites there, this crazy world way over yonder and my faith over there. And then I’ll try to finally get my new blog up and running.

For now, keep my family in your prayers. If I’ve learned anything it’s that this kind of stuff is never really over.

  • One of the biggest problmes i am facing is when i get carried away by everyday stuff to dedicate time and sit and just write and blog about what i love… but it always pay back, atleast for me its very fulfilling

  • Hi, like you, I’m slowly coming back to blogging some personal rants on my blog. Because a lot of things happened to my life too. Slowly everything is returning back to normal in my life now. I’ll include you on my prayers so everything will be ok for you.
