I have been blogging for a month or more, and I just read the most disturbing blog. I sometimes wonder why people blog. When you think about it, we spend a few minutes per day to write the blog; maybe even half-an-hour if it is long, or we have a touch of a writer's block (me for the last two days).
I just don't feel like being witty, sexy or humorous. But I have been poking around some other friend's blogs, and I have seen two blogs today that were very disturbing. One blog poster seemed suicidal and another one seemed clinically depressed. I am in a sort of funk, and I don't know why, but my heart bleeds for these two digital friends.
Sometimes I wonder if I should blog at all. And then I get some wonderful comment that makes me hold myself up higher, and I am hooked again. Not today, but probably some day soon. Some of us may use our blogs for counseling purposes – not what I am doing at all. I want to impart my experiences and what I have learned on others. Because I really don't want others to follow some of my paths. Everyone has the right to screw up, but it may be a more painful way of traveling through life. If I tell you the stove is hot, perhaps you won't burn your fingers like I did.
But right now I just hope my digital friends are okay.

3. My Stories. Yeah, I have a few erotic stories here. I know, they are not all that good, but they were fun to write. Don't read them if this offends you (and they represent less than 1% of the content here). These stories have elements of truth and fantasy, some more true than others. Complain about something that is a bit more substantive if you must complain. I have lots of faults.

Your sweet Leesa, I hope they are too. Sometimes ya just feel helpless dont ya? Sucks!!
it is the "responsibility" of creating cyber friends.....there is an attachment to some that transcends the anonymity we usually enjoy in sharing our thoughts and perceptions....
i appreciate the friends i have sparked with through blogging.....yet have had to close the door on some ,whether through lack of mutual respect, or of expectmore than i choose to give....same in daily life.....however we do have the opportunity here to speak a bit more openly, to not respond if we choose....and continue our safe distance.....
do continue to write and post leesa, you are a genuine writer, entertaining and insightful. i smile often reading you....for me, time is the crux..not enough to share all i want..and with fall here, outside, nature beckons me come and enjoy!
you are the coolest! more please! when inspired, or simply venting......
I missed your blog the last couple of days, working...but I've just gotta say, I'd miss you so very much.
Blogging is never enough. It is only the people behind blogs that can fill in the void. No?
muse: guess I got my muse back this morning. I wrote about dick!
samantha: gave the person a digital hug this am
ken: I wonder if some of us are different is cyberspace. I am less guarded
sjblogger: I read the following this morning - "It is only with the heart that one can see rightly; what is essential is invisible to the eye."
long iron: thanks. I like you.
justice: sometimes I want to cut back. Wonder if it would help.
kathi: you are so sweet.
shirazi: it is the journey and not the destination that is important.
Well I hope that your friends are ok. I'm sure that any kind word that you give them will help. *Wink*
i think you are right leesa....the wonders of cyberspace allow us to peruse interests we might not otherwise in physical life...we are curious people, many simply nosy and invasive. i see many flirting and teasing, the sensual realm is high traffic, when they would NEVER be so forward or uninhibited in their daily encounters....i do enjoy your friends and their comments here....what a wonderful addition to the day! long iron....powerful message!
thanks for another smile leesa!
I am the same way - I get worried for my blogger buddies when they are in a funk.
