I've noticed my numbers drop off a little since I stopped posting as often on weekends, even though my weekend number were always lower than weekdays.<BR/><BR/>I feel on and off tired of blogging -- sometimes I have to force myself to do it and sometimes I can't wait to get to it or stand to tear myself away.Mary P Jones (MPJ)https://www.blogger.com/profile/10251787926841410344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37084648.post-78261361360377775842008-03-16T12:11:00.000-05:002008-03-16T12:11:00.000-05:00Somegirl, it's proof of how blah my life has been ...Somegirl, it's proof of how blah my life has been lately that I had not used my camera in over a month. I may be having a general lack of inspiration. But today, thanks to Meleah tagging me for a meme, I took out my camera and took some pictures around the house.Boricua in Texashttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10408201125366918838noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37084648.post-59789875871500967292008-03-16T03:04:00.000-05:002008-03-16T03:04:00.000-05:00I remember you saying how much you thought we were...I remember you saying how much you thought we were alike...and this posts confirms that for me.

Ingrid, I have also struggled with my writing for a long time, and I felt really lonely because I really couldn't share what I wrote with anyone. I'm still a little shy (and superstitious) about letting anyone read my stuff...<BR/>To me, like you say, writing is a way of finding sanity in a very insane, busy world; it's about finding that space of solitude we all need...<BR/>Sigue escribiendo, porque lo haces muy bien.

It seemed that I always owed them e-mail, so I decided to just blog. They check my blog every day, but have never commented. <BR/><BR/>I mostly write in my blog what I would write in a journal if I had it. And sometimes, yeah...I would go years without writing in my journal. <BR/><BR/>When thing become a chore, it is time for a break. I always keep a running list of people who comment on my blog and make sure to stop by theirs to reciprocate. Periodically, I check my blog list and if I haven't visited someone in a while, I will stop by and see how they are faring. But..you know...you have to WANT to be there or the whole thing loses it's point, yes?<BR/><BR/>Good luck to you, no matter what you decide.Mariahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05049511202014141182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37084648.post-88069148179415076552008-03-14T15:24:00.000-05:002008-03-14T15:24:00.000-05:00i am from the school of thought that says... if it...i am from the school of thought that says... if it don't feel good don't do it... do what feels good.. make yourself happy... after all in the end.. you are all you've got... <BR/><BR/>i enjoy reading you,, and i do so by way of reader ever time you post... but i'll be here ... you know where to find me....paisleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08231453820728399262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-37084648.post-49631090032356214382008-03-14T14:49:00.000-05:002008-03-14T14:49:00.000-05:00I'm not sure I'll give it up, Meleah. it made me ...I'm not sure I'll give it up, Meleah. it made me sad when Micki of My Rearview Mirror posted her goodbye.

I don't think I've ever visited and felt like I'd wasted my time here. I don't think you're capable of being dull.<BR/><BR/>You are an excellent communicator, but at the end of the day blogging is the kind of thing that you should give up if it becomes a chore and not a pleasure.

Se encuentra en el libro No llores por nosotros Puerto Rico. A veces yo me hago la misma pregunta. ¿Por que escribir? ¿Por que escribir en un blog? <BR/><BR/>La contestación de LRS quizás no te sorprende. El escribe porque tiene algo que decir.<BR/><BR/>Yo escribo para conocerme mejor. El escribir es un proceso de investigación personal y no tan personal. Ponemos en perspectiva, en palabras, nuestros pensamientos. Nuestras ideas.<BR/><BR/>Tu al igual que muchos otros tiene algo que contar. ¿Que es eso?<BR/><BR/>Una sugerencia que copie de otro: establece una rutina de escritura que puedas mantener. <BR/><BR/>Por mi parte me comprometo a escribir un post por semana. Nada mas y nada menos. Y a finales de año, me tomo un break, que anuncio en el blog, de un mes y a veces de un mes y medio, con la idea de cargar baterías, de darle tiempo a la musa para que haga su trabajo.<BR/><BR/>Como dice una canción de Fiel a la Vega, no malgaste su talento (Las Flores de Emilio). Usted tiene fibra de escritora, siga adelante. Estaremos leyendo.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com
