And besides bringing joy personally speaking, I find it's so liberating. To be able to come in here and send off some bit of inspiration or sentiments about this or that current topic is one of the blessings of the Internet, in my view. And commenting on fellow bloggers' offerings in various parts of the world is rewarding, with some new friendships being formed. For years while restricted to being published in the print media (was grateful for the outlet, of course--in most cases, that is), it's the difference between night and day to send out thoughts immediately, as many as I have time and inspiration to get together. And with no one to say, such and such doesn't measure up to our standards.
So topping my list of things to be thankful for today -- blogs. If you don't yet have one of your own, think about getting one. Being free to express what you feel just may expand your horizons more than you imagine.
