I want to blog my memories as I remember then, I want to blog about the everyday, but all of it is just too personal to share on a public blog. Without that, I have nothing to share except the odd scrap page, so I'm blogging behind closed doors for me,myself and I and not sure if or when I'll share any stories again. I wish private blogger would work as I want it to :( Hopefully a scrap page will appear soon from me!Liberty :)https://www.blogger.com/profile/07956016654162678182noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328228070357271563.post-44702099164584696872011-01-29T15:01:02.402+00:002011-01-29T15:01:02.402+00:00Found your post really interesting Sian.

I love that our blogs allow us to get our daily stories down. Even if nobody is reading mine, I still feel good to have written it. Hope you are feeling better. :)Jennifer Shawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05489870773549675036noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328228070357271563.post-81575067034365278622011-01-27T17:31:35.249+00:002011-01-27T17:31:35.249+00:00A lovely,thought provoking post,Sian....so well wr...A lovely,thought provoking post,Sian....so well written as always.<br />Glad you're on the mend.<br />Re your comment....I love looking at other people's shopping as well!scrappyjackyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/11761068895383717904noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328228070357271563.post-27805417022132249482011-01-27T17:08:01.058+00:002011-01-27T17:08:01.058+00:00You and me both, Ruth!

Thinking about stories for Y&T has made me open up memories that have been closed for years and I think, in the end, that can only be a good thing.<br />This last week, I've wished you lived around the corner, as I would love to brainstorm the Y&T ideas I have with you. And, of course, I could have popped round with chicken soup and words of comfort ~ glad you're on the mend.Ruthhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18032490985687716495noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328228070357271563.post-49980920752633992242011-01-27T13:38:49.901+00:002011-01-27T13:38:49.901+00:00Such a beautifully written post Sian.

I love the way you are also so ready to listen - because a story which is not heard bcomes a lonely and withering-away experience. So perhaps although we are not able to blog sometimes and tell stories, the fact that we visit, listen and validate others' stories is, in itself, a huge gift ...alexahttp://simplyalexa.typepad.com/trimmingthesailsnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8328228070357271563.post-86917860266072292922011-01-27T09:42:57.555+00:002011-01-27T09:42:57.555+00:00Coincidentally, something Alexa said in a blog pos...Coincidentally, something Alexa said in a blog post this week sparked a very similar train of thought in me. She said my class was giving people confidence and I was bowled over because *that's* my story. <br /><br />That's what I've been trying to do in different ways since ... always.
