I understand feeling blue and not wanting to over share but I hope you are being kind to yourself as you work through your “sad place”.

Putting your writing out there when real life and online friends KNOW you, is harder than it sounds, especially when you are being 100% true to your feelings. Editing yourself and your feelings for your public blog can be a challenge, at least it is for me. Most times I think I whine too much or, if I put it out there that I’m totally sick of myself, everyone else will be too. Sigh. It’s hard.

I’ve thought about a private blog but soon realized that for me, it would just be a bunch of rantings and that conversation goes on in my head way to much as it is to spend even more time writing it down. Oy.

So my friend, hang in there. I have no solutions just encouragement to keep writing– You’re so very good at it.
