Thank You.

Wednesday, July 29th, 2009

This blog is a great outlet for me. It allows me to write things out, get things off my chest, to let things go and allow myself to feel better. It also allows me to share a piece of my life and my story with others. I absolutely love sharing stories with people. I love hearing that something I wrote made someone laugh, or to hear that someone shared a similar experience. I just feel like life is such a journey, and we are all in this together, so we might as well share our stories and try to help each other out.

That is where the Thank You comes in. I was feeling a little bit sad today and chose to blog about it. Mostly, just so I could let it go. I am one of those dorky people that would write letters to people but then burn the letters so the people never actually read them, but I still felt better. I don’t like to hold things in. I believe in accepting things, then letting them go and moving on. After I wrote that blog, I immediately began to feel better. Well, this evening I received a phone call from someone who shall remain nameless (not everyone wants their name on the internet, although I am not sure why not, the internet is such a warm and fuzzy place…) that had read my blog and insisted on paying to send Zane to camp. I am absolutely floored by this incredible act of kindness. In no way was my previous blog intended to make anyone else feel bad. It was simply me venting about the guilt we sometimes can feel as parents. To this person that made this incredible offer, Thank You So Much. You will be getting some very cute pictures of a very happy little gymnast in your mailbox!
