One of my fears about blogging is the same excuse I give as to why I don't preach - that I really only have the one thing to say. However, I'm now over the 200 mark, and whilst there is a lot of repetition of themes, it appears I do have more than just one thing to bang on about, or at least I've been able to comment on it from different angles.
Sometimes tho, I check that I've not said exactly the same thing before - and today I wanted to talk about connection but see I've already talked about it in myriad ways. Still, it's good to remind myself of my own wisdom, so I've enjoyed re-reading my own blogs!
Everyday at 5pm, my Dad phones his Mum. My Dad's currently in France for a few weeks and has still rung her from time to time, but I reassured him that in his absence, I would make sure I rang her everyday (tho not at 5, my life is just not like that). Everyday, we run through the same ritual of me saying I'll ring again tomorrow and everyday, my Grandma tells me I don't have to. I always reply I know I don't have to, but I want to.
I'm lucky that I have several people who let me know in various little ways that they think of me. I think it makes a big big difference to our sense of self, so I'm very grateful. It's all the things I got people thinking about in our Sunday service - how do we know when we are loved, how can we show that to others. I know I am loved. Sometimes it's not easy to know how to show others they are loved - but I shall be on the lookout :D
