When conversation picks up from a blog I initiated, I feel a wonderful sense of accomplishment, especially with comments from followers. Dialogue on issues begin and are hashed out . Disagreements are expected, understanding and respect are built from sharing thoughts and ideas from faces we never see and have never met.
I recently had a blogger friend ask if I knew how she and her husband could go about adopting a young teenage child, possibly an immigrant/ok I’ll say it refugee. Another follower read the blog and responded with contact information of an agency/organization that may be of assistance. Wow….how great is that. Blogging can serve a wonderful purpose, when good people get involved; but you knew that. Even if nothing becomes of it….the fact people are willing to share to help another, is a sign there is still hope for us as a nation. We still care.
