Losin it in Paradise

I am quoting a lady I admire very much in the title of today’s blog.  It is about door opening and closing.  And the way our lives revolve.  Or just stay static if we chose to not move forward.

I have met so many different people on this blog site and we come from all walks of life, all different life styles, different states, different countries, different backgrounds, but we have all got one thing in common.  We all seem to care deeply for one another, people we have never met, never talked to in person, never touched in real life, never laugh with in anything other than our own rooms or with a LOL.  But we have all connected on these monitor screens.  We have shared the wonderful writings of Ruby Jean and lived in the warmth of her family.  We felt her pain today when we read the “cuss” words on her blogs, as we all know our Ruby Jean.  We shed tears of pain for our anngrl when Stocky left her so cruelly and leapt with joy and probably a bit of envy at her thankgawdhefinallykissedhermomentwithCOP.  And we are off with her to her new job to share in her excitement as she closes the door on the old one.   We are testing the food trials with Round, and frowning at the thought of eggs on our pizza.  The upbeat and joy of the blogs of Flower and again a bit of envy that she can lose over the holidays.   Worry about our Dritta, and hope she is okay.   Always feels so good with the cheer of iniya and soclose as they encourage us and champion us on.   And DonnaLynn has now joined in, and she is a Hawaii gal as well.  What a circle of friends we have here.  It is amazing to me how I can feel so close to people that I have never met at least in the real sense of the word.  How I look so forward to going on line to see if there is a note from my “friends”

So when I am lonely or feel down and defeated, I come to blog even if I really have nothing to say except to whine or bitch and ya’ll are there for me.  Whether it is for a kick in the ass, or a pat on the back you are there, and for that my friends, I say thank you and  I look forward to the door opening on another year of friendship.  May 2008 bring joy and happiness to all of us.
