Blogging

I recently received an message from someone who follows this blog and it was probably one of the greatest and nicest things anyone has ever said to me. This is what she said below....

I want to tell you that you were a huge inspiration to me to start Clomid. May was my first round and you only took it for a month and now you are pregnant!!!! I am so happy for you and Joshua!!! Thank you so much for inspiring me and keeping me positive.

Now to be fair, I do not know this person, so I was totally surprised to see this message...surprised in a good way. Her telling me that I inspired her made me realize that I'm not just typing this all into cyberspace. I know I have had comments on her before but I guess it just didn't hit me that people really are reading this and taking it in. People that I don't even know are following this blog and I am helping them by just telling about the events going on with me. I know I personally read other blogs and know they helped me when I was having a hard time. I knew then that I wasn't the only one dealing with one thing or another...that everyone has their own problems. 

Since that message I have done nothing but think of the way my actions and words can effect other people. I mean...I helped someone I don't even know by starting a blog that was never intended to be so detailed. So what are my everyday actions telling people? I think being a blogger can hide a lot about a person but it can also tell a lot. I hope this blog shows the outgoing, friendly and caring person that I am. I also hope that by blogging I have the opportunity to encourage others like the above reader. 

The quote I have basically lived by for the last year is When the world says give up, Hope whispers try one more time. That's what I want this blog to be about. Don't ever give up and don't settle for mediocre because everyone deserves the best.
