I’ve been at a crossroads of sorts. I haven’t been putting much effort into my blog or writing lately. It’s an easy place to find yourself. There are so many of us out there, saying the same thing, some more eloquently than others. And creeping in are the thoughts of, “Why bother?” And that little devil on the shoulder that says, “They are better than you, what are you doing?”
We are all here living the same experiences. It’s a matter of perception and depth of experience that separate us. I read lots of personal/spiritual growth blogs and articles. They all say the same thing but some I really resonate with. What is that connection? Is it worded just right? Is the time right that I’m finally ready to hear the message? Is the writer more transparent so I feel a deeper connection? Integrity?
I have come to realize I don’t need to be perfect, only to reach for the best that I can offer. This issue has been a stumbling block for me. If it can’t be perfect; better than anyone else, I’m not going to bother (that’s a Virgo trait). I also realized that with this attitude I am not sharing my gift; my passion, or being true to myself. But more important, I’m not expressing myself in a way that might just “click” with someone, someone that resonates with my words.
We are all water drops in the ocean of life. Each one of us is part of the whole.
There wouldn’t be an ocean (or lake, river, tears, rain) if each drop withheld sharing and merging.

Love your stories,
They come from the Heart.
And all-ways hit close to mine.
Thank you Jeff! It’s nice to know that my writing touches people, that’s my inspiration to continue sharing.
Hi Tania,
I have been getting that way recently as well. Blogging is only a small part of my income yet I get the most Joy from doing it.
I too thought how many of us can say the same thing before it get’s to be redundant. But I realized that it is not so much the message but the person behind it that I like.
Even thoughts that we have are shared and available to all since we are a collective consciousness.
Thanks Justin for stopping by and leaving a comment.
I get a lot of joy out of blogging as well and am looking forward to the Fall and putting more energy into my blogs and writing.
I too feel the energy/personality behind what I read or hear and was happy to be made aware of your great blog.
Peace & Blessings,
Tania
Everyone has something to contribute to the world and even small acts can have a great impact if their motivation is to be of benefit to others. Without the little drops, there would be no ocean. If all the little drops want their ocean to be a good place, then it will be. So carry on little drop, I’m dripping with you.
