My friend Darlene started her blog and asked me to check it out. She had already established friendships prior by commenting, and having been introduced to this "bloggie world" by her little sister Denise. I have to admit, seeing the blog for the first time and how it all worked seemed odd, and I felt as if I was intruding, eavesdropping on someone's conversation, or picking up someone's notes and reading them. It did not feel comfortable and I would get off the screen quickly, as if I it was something I shouldn't be doing.... obviously, I got over it.

As time went on, I witnessed the growth in the women who volunteered to do the mirror meditation. And also the encouragement, caring, positive feed back on a daily basis. I find it all so amazing!

In the last month I have gone from blog to blog. I am deeply touched and it has brought tears to my eyes to see the community of posts sharing Darlene and Marks plight and how it has affected them.

I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart, for being there for our friend. It means so very much to me. Please continue to pray, and meditate positive thoughts for Darlene and her family through this time.

  4. I felt the same as you when I first started my own blog, too. I found it especially difficult to start commenting on other people's blogs - like I was interrupting an on-going conversation, but I'm getting better at it nowadays! ;)
    I'm so glad to know that Darlene has someone like you close by, and to have found you both! :)
    She & her family will always be in my thoughts & prayers over here in England.
    I love the photo, by the way!
    Hugs,
    Suze xXx

  5. I felt just the same when I first found blogging. One link leads to another and another. I still haven't really found my own blogging voice, but it will come.

    It's nice to know that Darlene has such a loyal and supportive friend close by. She's a gem and it sounds like you are too.
