I’m struggling. Tonight, I’m sitting here, wondering what to write and I know that deep down, and I’m struggling. I don’t know if I’ve lost my mojo, but I don’t even feel like writing on my own blogs. What I do feel like doing is curling up and going to sleep and not doing a thing.
However, I know there are people in worse shape than me, the person that’s lost their mojo. I think of my friends who’ve had multiple surgeries like Connie, friends going thru nasty separations and custody battles, or @WhyMommy and know that as far as life goes? Things could be a lot worse.
Struggling Together
So, why am I writing this here on Connie’s blog? Because she’s my friend. She needs to know that I’m very much aware of how much she’s been struggling and because I’ve been in a pity-party, I’ve not done enough for her. That’s wrong of me. We are in a group of wonderful women who celebrate the bonds of sisterhood, make each other mad, hurt feelings, and forget to do what we’ve promised, but we still love each other. However, I don’t feel I’ve done enough for them. Not writing more for Connie to help my sister and being so late on the post I promised long ago makes me feel like a heel… or worse.
That’s the thing about this life online. People don’t realize that we’re online as bloggers and social media figures, but we’re also offline and have lives, our own problems and personal issues.
This post, this post of love to my friend, my sister, is to let her know I’m still here for her…I’m just wavering myself. Sometimes, that’s the best any of us can do. Fade in and out trying to build our strength up to face everything full of health, vim and vigor.
I’m hoping this post helps Connie as she pushes her way back to vibrant health. She’s deserves that health and more.
