I know it's been awhile since I have blogged. I've had some things that have happened in my life that have given me the blogging blues. Things, mostly work politics, have put me in a blah mood and I have had no desire to write about anything. If I was as good a writer as my cute friend, Sandie, she has also been in a blah mood with blogging for the exact same reasons and describes it much more eloquently in her blog. So... ditto Sandie's blog about feeling blah about blogging. There. Done.
However difficult things at work have become, I am determined not to let them get me down permanently. Therefore I have decided to enter the blogging world once again. Much more cautiously and slowly this time, but surely nonetheless. No cute pictures to add or anything really clever to say, just me.
As I am pulling myself out of this funk, I am so thankful to be surrounded by a few wonderful people; those who have stood by me when I have been at my weakest, for holding me up when I could not even hold myself up and for refusing to believe the worst about me, even when I believed it. Most of you don't even realize that you have helped me, and what examples of strength and hope you have been to me.
"In everyone's life, at some time, our inner fire goes out. It is then burst into flame by an encounter with another human being. We should all be thankful for those people who rekindle the inner spirit." Albert Schweitzer.
Everything and everyone has flaws and cracks in it, but that's where our inner light shines through. Don't expect any huge or earth-shattering entries as I slowly re-enter the blogging world, but I hope that a little of my inner light will be able to shine through my imperfections into the cracks of this thing called life.

Love the new formant, love the quote in your blog, and love that you are around again! Everyone has down blogging times in our lives for one reason or another, anyone who blogs understands, I am sure.
Steph. You're amazing. Don't ever let anyone make you think otherwise. It can be tough when the going gets rough, but you'll prevail stronger in the end.
