I read a lot of blogs, books, news, etc. and there have been several articles over time about internet security. Some of the blogs I love don't even reveal the real names of the people they write about. The topic ebbs and flows, and for the most part I agree. Although when I started this blog I did not even think about it to be honest, thus my children's names, my husband's name, my friends and other family members' names are out there in the blogosphere for everyone to read.
This rambling is about our stories.
I haven't written much lately because so much has happened to our little family over the past month. I struggled with whether or not I should journal all the things going on, post them to the blog or just work through it all amongst ourselves. It was a decision as to let the stories be shared at a later date or let the kids decide if in the future they wanted these moments out there.
But if I wait to let others make that decision where would all the stories go? When did we release the power of our stories over to someone elses feeling?
I'm not talking about airing dirty laundry for shock or revenge. I'm definitely not talking about intentionally hurting others or embarrassing them...just our everyday stories, marriage, parenting, the good times and bad. And how sometimes we all want to run away from our lives.
So hopefully in the upcoming weeks/months more of our everyday life stories will be shared, not just the picturesque happy fun times. Because though I try to make a fun, picture perfect life for myself and my family that is not reality. And let me just say reality has hit us all really hard in the past 2 months.
