Oh, it's sooo hard to write when no one reads this...

Oh, woe is me...It's 7:30 AM on Tuesday morning. I have been working on the San Diego Crisis Hot Line since midnight. Life is always darker in the mornings after working overnights. I thought I'd indulge myself, anyway, and moan about how difficult it is to write this blog when no one writes comments.

Is there some reason, like maybe, you don't see the 'comments' link after each blog? Or you just have no response to what was written? Or you just think what you have to say to me doesn't matter? Or you just aren't interested in what you just read?

A total stranger wrote a comment the other day to my blog about Transactional Analysis. It was delightful to hear from someone I didn't know. Unfortunately, she didn't write much in English. She sent me an email, but I couldn't respond back to her.

I recognize you are doing me a favor when you write a comment and I appreciate it very much. The favor you are doing is that you are acknowledging you read what I wrote and had enough interest to comment. Thank you for any comments you might write! You make a difference! Thank you for reading my BMW page--"Bitch, Moan, & Whine". You have my permission to BMW right back!

Try not to worry overly about comments. It seems you've gotten lots of comments, lately. As I look through your recent entries, nearly every one has atleast one comment. I know that I read a lot more than I comment. Our lives are so full, it's difficult to find time to comment every time. That's why I just look at my counter. Even when people don't comment, it helps to know that they're reading. But even if people don't comment, you have to decide whether you're writing for someone else, or for yourself. I know I struggle with that dilemma every day. (By the way, I like the new look of your blog!) Take care!
