Do not take it personally. It is a complicated and moving piece that stands strong all by itself.

I know what you mean about when you share...Melanie,<br />I know what you mean about when you share the most vulnerable part of yourself, and are often met with silence. That of course, in turn, creates more angst and insecurities in us. In my opinion, I don't think it a problem with people, but more the reality or the short-arm of social networking. Two or three sentences typed out in a comment box will never be able to convey the depth of feel of personal, raw emotions. Bloggers are for the most part, more reflective, the writers, the sensitive type. A quick "like" or "praying for ya sister"- the usual extent of content on fb comments- feels shallow and lame to sensitive writers. Trust that if your post was spirit-led it found it's mark somewhere, for someone. It's easier said then done, I still struggle with it big time, but if we are really led to be writers of truth we cannot seek validation in stats and comments.It makes us sitting ducks for the enemy to fill us with shame and feelings of failure. I hope this helps. Blessings on your journey.<br />Cheers,<br />LeahAnonymousnoreply@blogger.com
