Comments on: Purpose http://tobesugarfree.com/2009/07/09/142/ What good is an incurable disease if you can’t share it with the rest of the world. Fri, 25 May 2012 15:08:35 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.com/ By: Bernard Farrell http://tobesugarfree.com/2009/07/09/142/#comment-658 Sat, 11 Jul 2009 12:37:10 +0000 http://tobesugarfree.com/?p=828#comment-658 Here’s the thing as I see it. You’re expressing what’s happening with the big D and how you feel about it. And many of us share the same feelings though we may not be able to express them as well. Reading what you’re saying gives us a chance to say “That’s it and I’ve been there” and in our connection we find that we’re not as alone as we may think. If you’ve solved a problem that you’re struggling with one of your readers can share in your insight.

So keep up the great writing, it really does make a difference.

I went thru some writing classes 4 yrs ago that reminded me why I want to get my thoughts “out there” and what I also get from reading posts like yours…it wasn’t a great big “ah ha” but a reminder…we want to know we’re not alone on this journey. And, with diabetes, we all know how lonely it can feel…that we think we are the only ones or the only family going thru what we are going thru. Thanks for sharing…I agree with SSM…you never know who you are helping while you also sort out your thoughts about the D. I also admire you for posting daily!! I have several ideas in my head for blogs, but not enough time this summer. I hope to catch up soon before they take over my thoughts:)

Anyways, I’m saying that you being you is serving many more people than you might think.

Do you feel better after getting something out of your head and into words (which is a therapeutic exercise in my opinion)? Then that is what it is doing!

If you know that there are many fans out there (like me), who enjoy reading your stuff, get grins and laughs from it most of the time (like me), and sometimes gain much from your perspective (we all have one) and insights (like me).

Booya #300.

You are questioning, pondering, wondering. That leads to self realization. You are learning. And eventually you move forward. What else can we do?
Acknowledging your own thoughts, fears and worries helps to move forward in life. It’s a journey. Enjoy it. Even with doubts, Enjoy it.

I believe that self evaluation means you are doing something right. Just like your annual review at work is done to see how your performance has been. It’s crucial for us to do the same thing with ourselves in our personal lives. I think you’re doing great. Keep going because you never know who’s blog stalking and something you post could change their life forever.
