Having had a conversation with my Mom and Sis- we were talking about what 'draws' someone to return to a blog ([LOL] or a journal) and our ideas differed: so-
While today's entry, this one any way- isn't about 'me' per say, I wondered what draws you back to a blog or journal?
Is it content and subject alone? Or even if you like or are interested in the information that's shared, does the over-all look of the page or colors pretty much turn you away regardless?
I've had a few add-ons included in my journal from time-to-time. I've had music selections to choose, polls, etc... What about those? The more the merrier? Or the more the melancholy?
I am interested. Thanks (in advance) for your input. I guess what I want is while I'm sharing my journal online- I want people to be 'comfortable' at my blog while reading, sharing, laughing or even crying. That my page isn't keeping some from enjoying the visit.
Remember: you don't have to be a member or have a username to comment. You also have the choice of remaining anonymous or including your name. (gosh- how nice!)
Luv & Prayers,
Joy
I guess you would say i keep coming and reading on your progress because i knew you personally when you were a more active and vibrant and out and going with your kids and family.and now it hurts to know how you are now.when you have 3 young kids growing and you cant get out with them like you use to.we can only hope and pray that you keep having improvments in your health.it is good to know though you do have 3 wonderfull kids and a great husband to stand by and take care of you.

ReplyDeleteTo my little wifey,
ReplyDeleteGoing through hard times, which a lot of Christians are going through, your stories inspire determination, faith and a real God and in standing firmly on the Word of God.
Through your blogs many times its been a battle but sheer determination and believing in the Word of God (Bible says all things are possible to him that believe). Satan attacks us through pain and attacks us through our minds so that we not only have to tune out the pain and the attacks, but focus only on God and his promises that by His stripes we are healed.
Many Christians are going through the same thing and by you using your journal- you are causing them to hang on and not give up and believe what the bible says is true. My prayers and love for God and for you have come together believing you will be well to do what God wants you to do. This is only a first step- a beginning.
So please do keep writing the good and the bad and remember the devil is a liar and it is in Gods wisdom knowing that in one day you will have complete victory in him.
May God richly bless you. Leave the blog untouched. If it ain't broke, don't fix it!
Your little bitty hubby,
xoxoxo in Christ xoxoxoxo
Wow!! So this is where you're all hiding. In the comment section of Joy's blog.
ReplyDeleteAs your Sis, I can best tell how you're doing by reading this blog. I'm not talking about physically, I mean emotionally.
There are a lot of professionals looking out for your physical well-being, but you need people who love you to support your emotional health too.
To talk to you late at night, to make you laugh, to listen and to support you. To be a sister and a friend.
This is why I read your blog.
Plus, some day I hope I get free stuff here...
Good post... :).
