One of the first things I do every morning is check my email. I'm weird like that. And then I saw the email subject: "Anonymous has commented on your blog entry."
I've been on this quest for me, but in doing it publicly, I also hoped it might inspire or encourage others in the way that I was. Without "advertising," I wondered when anyone would even stumble along this blog, let alone comment. Still, I never thought I would feel like this when it happened.
It's amazing the rush you get from a few words of positive feedback, even from strangers. A few well-meaning, kind words don't cost anything, but can be an invaluable gift to the recipient. Realizing this, I'm going to be intentional about taking a moment or two to comment on others' works that inspire me.
So I thank you, Tom, for your encouragement and support to continue my quest. I wish you all the best on your own journey and I hope you know you have a friend here if you ever need one through those tough days.
