Tooth, thanks for drawing me back to this old post. I see that I never responded to Daisy. Will have to touch base with her again. As for you, my friend, you are not so much a dispenser of treasures as of treasure maps, which are by far the more exciting of the two.

Bob, thanks for all these thoughts about blog...my blog is all about exchange of valuable treasures for things human view as mundane or useless.

Your "A blogger is constantly looking over his shoulder, for fear that he is not being followed." made it (translated) into the Dutch magazine 'Kijk'.

I love the one about friends and relatives - it is so true.

Thanks for another interesting post - Daisy

rb,
Thanks for you kind words and ego boost! I can't wait to hear from those NY Publishers and Hollywood movie moguls! But for now I think I'll keep busy with my day job and get going on that pile of laundry waiting to be done!

Liz, I've just been over to your blog and for the first time did a comprehensive scan of your archives. I realize now that I've just been going through the motions in extending you an occasional word of appreciation. There is so much good reading there, so much honesty behind the well-turned phrases (something lacking here) and so much attention to making the whole thing inviting to the eye -- that I get frustrated on your behalf that it is not between book covers. Yours is very much "An American Life" and I encourage all the New York publishers and Hollywood movie moguls in my readership to take heed.

Both 1 and 2 pretty much describe my blog experience. I have a readership of about 3, and alienated more than one relative when I wrote this blog:

Ah well, such is the life of a blogger. After all...for whom do I blog? I blog for me! Anyone who chooses to read it is just along for the ride.

Christina, I think everyone who writes a blog eventually comes to the kind of epiphany you have reached. You realize that you can't be everything to everybody, and so it makes you want to become something significant to a few. And it makes you think carefully about the alternative points of view you want to consider in your life. I was over to your blog this morning and realize that you are saying things (and capturing things in photos) that provide an important, complementary perspective for me. I encourage you to continue.

Hi again, I love this post you wrote! I am glad I used your quote one day in my blog to have had the priveledge of reading your blog for it brightens my day tremendously! I have decided not to write a book, but I will post what I have written on my blog soon in short story formats. I will keep my blog, for I do enjoy it and it makes ME happy whether anybody reads it or not. I will try to make it more private though because I truly do like my life simple with just Buddy and I. Simple life is the best especially in the South:) Thanks for all of your encouragement, humor and writings!
