The time has come...

to say good-bye. I have felt for sometime that I should come away from this blog, that it has lost its initial intent and heart. I think in some ways I have stopped writing for myself, and have tried to write too much for others, and in doing so the writing has been forced, and pedestrian.

This has been a good exercise for me, and I do hope in some small way it has encouraged and blessed you. Thank you for your readership, and for those of you who left comments from time to time, they encouraged me and gave me the desire to continue to write.

May you be truly blessed this day. Julia

  2. I certainly hope, and this is totally thinking of myself, that no comments were made here that made you come to this decision. I pray that it means you are ready to go in a different direction in your healing process. God bless you Juia.

  4. I have to add another comment. You have shared your heart and soul as you are working through your grief. What you have written has given me a new respect for those that have lost a husband. We can all say "oh I'm so sorry" or the usual platitudes. But to really read about the intense grief that someone suffers has helped me to be able to sympathize with them on a deeper level. Thanks you for sharing your heart with all of us. I will continue to pray for you daily.
