I know that I haven't posted in a couple of weeks, after some frequency in July. A blogger that I really respect (http://sonyasworld.wordpress.com) talks about how posts stop when things are going well. After his most recent break, he said, "So in essence, I haven’t been writing because I’ve been too busy being happy. I started this blog when I needed an outlet for my feelings of anxiety, terror, uncertainty, and frustration".
That's the way I feel. I haven't posted because I have had no anxiety, terror, uncertainty, or frustration to express. David is doing amazingly well, I feel supported both by him and my friends, and I couldn't be happier. Everything I've wanted - Dave to take initiative in showing me he cares about me, help with our housework, security and comfort that Dave won't attempt anything harmful, support from my friends, hope for our dreams - is all here. I don't know how long that will last, but for now, I am incredibly content.
I want to thank you for this post. Well, for all of them, but this one in particular really touched me. It's true, most blogs stop abruptly. Some stop because things get so bad that it doesn't seem fair to share them with the world anymore. Some stop because people feel they aren't getting what they need from sharing their feelings. I really appreciate your explanation, and am glad for your reason for silence.
