New Directions

Much is happening in my life and I don't really want to talk about it. Tilt, tilt.

I always want to be heard by all and sundry. Why else blog? I have been willing to open the doors of my life to strangers, and like Blanche I have looked for and relied on their kindness. I found it in spades. So what is the deal? In the past when I stopped blogging it was because I didn't have the energy to put fingers to keyboard. This is different. Blogging now feels invasive. I find I no longer want to share the details of my life. Suddenly my inner and maybe even outer life seem private.

Don't know what this new boundary will mean for the blog. Only time will tell.

Take care. Love Bea

I have gone through a phase like this, where I feel protective of my personal information. I used to feel anonymous while blogging but at some point realized I wasn't - it was all public, discoverable information. Same with facebook, I stopped putting much out there. I like reading your blog, though, very much!

you can always go private. I think a lot more bloggers should. I have a bloggy friend in the midst of a divorce who just went private. it is like a club house. maybe those feelings are what you should be writing about, not the specifics of the facts. I think a lot of times when we are writing about something and it feels 'not right' then that is our cue that we are focusing on the wrong thing. there is something more under there. I also think at some point in our process the need for even-ness is huge. and that is the core issue. All the other things we used to write about is sort of the chaff.

there is a saying - it is about the food until it isn't about the food any more.
