reading in my feeder

as i have been catching up around the bloggosphere, it has occurred to me that there is a whole lotta shit going down all over. what do i mean by that? many of the bloggers i read and consider blog buddies have been going through some devastating times recently- and i just don't know if this is coincidence or what. we talk about bloggers leaving due to burnout- and while i know that that is true- there are many who are dealing with significant losses out there. it just seems to me to be coming in waves and i don't know if the state of the world exacerbates it- or if it just happens. probably a wee bit of both. take a moment to check around and offer blog buddies some love and support. fred has a post up on blogger buddies gone- and fred, i am sorry for your loss. stop by these folks too-

reconstitution
sumo merriment

and any others i know i missed- as i am not all of the way through the reader. we never know who is going through what because not all share their burdens or trials. only one thing is for certain- we are all going to get through this together. we will fight on and support each other- and take breaks in shifts as needed- but we will prevail. that's what the human spirit does- it prevails.

You're right Betmo so many of our favorite bloggers are facing heavy storms in their lives.

Sometimes each other is all we have at the moment.
