I do believe, the connection between you and me must be of the "at the hip" variety, though. Amazing connection! You know I pay attention to what you write, whenever you write it -- and I have some reason to believe you do the same for my writings. Therefore, it follows that you're aware of the fact of my own silence. My blogs are speaking to me every morning when I awaken. They speak to me as I sit here writing this comment. They speak to me in my meditations. They speak to me at the end of the day. The words they say are always the same --- "Where the heck are you, Ron? Get back to it, man, your readers will all be gone if you don't get back to doing some serious writing." What is the fear? I suspect you have described my fear in these words you wrote above, <em> "Whether we want to or not writers reveal something of themselves in everything they create through the medium of the written word. Who would want to reveal that they are struggling because they are out of integrity? It’s not a nice admission to make. </em> Will today be the day when I can break through as you have with this post? At this moment I'm not convinced my day has come. We'll see .... Be well, dear friend -- and be in peace. Oh -- and thank you for writing!! xxx One of the things you’ve read in some blog post of mine from the past is how we are all connected in this universe of ours.
