I feel less pressured that way but still part of what is going on in the community.<br /><br />I feel we Aussies have a special sense of humour that we enjoy sharing. We can laugh at ourselves and even in our depth of despair find a little light to battle on.<br /><br />Your comments ALWAYS brighten my day/night whether they are frequent or infrequent....AND very soon I will be venturing to Canberra to say hello to my sweet Aussie friend. :-)miruspeghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01980477108868960140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620413414268418377.post-12255506977048925742010-04-25T14:40:06.590+10:002010-04-25T14:40:06.590+10:00Oh what a wonderful Beranard Meltzar quote.

I shall have to remember that one.<br /><br />As you know I have been up and down with my blogging and I would say I have not been as committed to it for at least the last eight months. However, I will never give it up. Even though I dont comment on blogs as much I still read blogs. <br /><br />Peggy you are a positive light in the blogging world. And am very proud you are an Aussie too. Happy, positive and I only have to see your picture and your gorgeous smile to start smiling too. <br /><br />And that postcard is amazing. Soon you will be off for another trip to see some more bloggers.

(trying to be published). Of course blogging is publishing, sharing, dreaming, daring.... I too sometimes ask myself why, then I realize how much I miss everyone... all of you beautiful souls that meet here, on these cyber pages, connecting with the otherwise unconnected (OK that didn't come out right but you know what I'm getting at) I would never have had the opportunity to meet you and call you dear friend if it hadn't been for you blogging.... So I for one say, blog on!! We can sip tea (or wine if it's time) relax and share a little bit of ourselves... cheers to you Peggy for being you and blogging with us/me. <br />I am so glad you and Stoneweaver had such a wonderful time and swimming with dolphins is up there on my list too.

Sometimes I feel it overwhelms me and is like a chain around my neck that weighs me down, other times I am so inspired by my friends blogs I feel totalled justified in spending so much time blogging.<br />Just recently I feel I have finally struck a happy medium.<br /><br />That photo on my header of the driftwood was taken in Christchurch, New Zealand on my recent visit. I saw it as we were cycling and had to stop and admire it more closely.<br /><br />I have formed many close relationships with my blogging friends, some I feel much closer to than my 'real life' friends. And then they become my 'real life' friends which is a real blessing. :)miruspeghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01980477108868960140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620413414268418377.post-61111083813209253432010-04-05T14:43:24.803+10:002010-04-05T14:43:24.803+10:00Hello Peggy,

I was returning to the boat and as I was quite a way out I was feeling very tired and a bit anxious and was thinking about putting my hand up and asking for help. <br />A dolphin then appeared, came very close, looked me in the eye as if to say he/she would help me if I needed it. He then swam slowly with me right to the boat. <br />I will never forget that connection I felt to that dolphin.miruspeghttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01980477108868960140noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-620413414268418377.post-25625718195301962172010-04-02T09:26:55.317+11:002010-04-02T09:26:55.317+11:00Hi!
