We never truly know who is 'watching' or 'observing' us. We never truly know how far reaching our choices and actions will carry. I often find myself just going through the motions of daily life. Unaware of the impression I may be leaving. Until recently.
A dear friend contacted me a few weeks ago and thanked me. She was touched by a certain post that really meant a lot to her. This came as a surprise. I was actually considering shutting my blog down. Turning it off completely. I'm so glad I didn't.
It means the world to me that she found comfort. There isn't a greater compliment than that. Just to know that my words helped her feel like she wasn't alone.
I really don't think I'd still be posting here if it wasn't for her letting me know that I had made a difference. Which got me thinking how many times have I walked away from a blog post without commenting or letting the author know how much I appreciated their words? What events could unfold by my not expressing gratitude or vice versa...expressing my gratitude? I'd rather not leave that to chance.
This post is part of a blog circle called Sisterhood Stories. Follow along and visit my friend, Boo.

That's is so true Kristi... We never know who reads and how what we write impacts them, if it made a difference for only one person, it was worth it!
I missed this one last week!! What a beautiful post Kristi. Don't ever shut your blog down.... xxx
