Blogging verse Private Journal
This blog is public and as such I censor the content that I put online, I also like to journal and do that offline. I have read of people keeping their journals online but set to private and have and still am considering it. I think one of the reasons is that I really like the blogging app I use Blogsy and another is that the the journal is on the cloud and available to me anywhere I can access the net.
But, even if I setup the blog as private there is also a chance it can be access. Which makes me think who would want to hack my journal, reading my private entries is actuall pretty boring and is more for me as a theraputic act and hopefully for my kids later in life.
Right now I don’t know what I will do, I am writing more about loss, the loss of close family members we have and till are dealing with this year. This year turned into a very difficult year for my family as we grieve the loss of close relatives.
RIP Grandma Hess – Sand
This summer has been a tough summer, my wife’s grandfather passed away suddenly and her grandmother was hospitalized. Gramma has returned home in hospice care and constant monitoring, my wife has been there every step of the way. Sadly, she passed away 2 days before we would leave for vacation.
Seeing how my wife has been there truly inspired me and made me realize even more how much I love her.
We are a very close family and love to spend time with family and friends, which we believe is the purpose of life. Spending time with the people you love is the greatest gift of life and I don’t every want to miss out on that. There is no amount of money in the world that can replace the quality time you spend with loved ones.
Seeing the smiles of their faces, hearing the laughing of their voices and comforting them in times of sorrow. This is what makes family and this is what I value about life. There are so many sad things in the world that you have to make time to share in the happiness of life. The real happiness is something that can be remember and be stored in your heart.
May God Bless You and Rest In Peace Grandma Hess.
Reality Check (via achicksperspective)
I read this article the other day and it touched me so much. Personally my family is everything, I love them so much, tell them you love them everyday and show them how much you care.
As we remember 9/11 and think of the tragic plane accident, this story is touching and sad.
May God Bless the families and friends of these people and all people suffering and needing help.
Reality Check
My day was supposed to be over a little after noon today, but as I dropped off my last client, the office asked me if I could do one more run at 2 o’clock. Being the team player that I am, I said I would. I had 90 minutes to drive back to our company lot, switch into a van and then go to the pickup. Plenty of time to stop for some lunch and mess around on my phone. Peace of cake. After making the vehicle change, sucking down a burger and fries fr … Read More
