You're right, the ...Thanks for writing, Kellie!<br />You're right, the anonymity of the internet gives some a false sense of power and bravado. It gets ugly out there...and that makes me sad.<br />I appreciate your continued, kind-hearted responses.Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03599739740886087571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819048519590916875.post-769123223582824622014-07-27T05:01:12.261-04:002014-07-27T05:01:12.261-04:00Thank you, Pat!
I appreciate your kind support. I...Thank you, Pat!<br />I appreciate your kind support. I love reading about things I will probably never have the chance to experience from folks I may never get to meet in person...like you. I particularly like your descriptions of by-gone days.<br />...and I agree with you "virtual friends are most important"!Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03599739740886087571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819048519590916875.post-89747042927052794162014-07-27T04:58:35.004-04:002014-07-27T04:58:35.004-04:00Well, you do know where to find me.

It sound...Well, you do know where to find me. LOL<br /><br />It sounds like an interesting book that you're reading. I have to agree...we are all connected and our words and actions have far-reaching effects of which we may never truly be aware. Therefore, we should be a little more careful sometimes. Unfortunately, it seems that a lot of folks forget that and it's just all about them. :( <br /><br />Thanks for reading and responding! Your responses always make me smile.<br /><br />Have a good one!<br />Hugs right back at ya from the Valley.Barbarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03599739740886087571noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819048519590916875.post-79857501235517916442014-07-26T13:03:32.219-04:002014-07-26T13:03:32.219-04:00Heard the term telephone tough guy?

But I do not interact online to be nasty so I will avoid those firestarters. Speak your mind, great. Harass, stalk or threaten forget it. I am online the way I normally am, polite and a good girl!Kellie from Indianahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14336038070977514482noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819048519590916875.post-53174793336377963022014-07-26T06:25:43.030-04:002014-07-26T06:25:43.030-04:00Well said, Barbara.

I find blogging fills a huge gap in my life now that I am older and less mobile and the 'virtual' frieds I have made through it are most important to me. The ones i have been lucky enough to meet face to face, both in the US and in the UK, I have met feeling as though I have known them for years. As for your story - I find it absolutely inspirational - your hard work, your starting from scratch and building up a viable and fulfilling business. I for one would miss your weekly story greatly, and I am sure there are many more like me. Keep blogging and delete the dross.The Weaver of Grasshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13947971556343746883noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2819048519590916875.post-26551919630058134192014-07-25T20:26:17.964-04:002014-07-25T20:26:17.964-04:00Dear Barbara,

I put it down for just a bit to do a little blog surfing. And I'm right at the part where he's talking about how Every Story Matters. To God, and, since we are all connected, to Us -whether we realize it or not.<br /><br />I am so glad for the connection you and I share. Keep on writing, and I'll keep on reading. <br />Big hugs from me and jbMaureen @ Josephina Ballerinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09026799070718705353noreply@blogger.com
