Scared Bunny

You know, people that blog tend to write about all kinds of things. You see a whole lot of blogs about knitting or parenting. Everyone with a political opinion, and I think some who only think they do have one, feel the urge to write about it. There are cooking blogs, sex blogs (you know, like this one used to be), and photoblogs.

There are even blogs about emotions. How many blogs a day do you see about how depressed, unhappy, angry or even bored do you see when you hit next blog on that bar on top of most blogs? But, as you know if you read hear much you know that I play a little Blogshares on the side. And in all that play I had never even heard of something called the Freya. That is the artifact for love.

Ive reviewed as many blogs as every player in that game besides one person, and the only "love" blogs that stand out are teenagers talking about their boyfriends or girlfriends, and I swear the only reason those even exist is because kids have curfews. For adults like me, if we are in love we would much rather spend what little time we have doing something for the person we love.

Look at my writing. When I first met Tricia the frequency and quality of my posts dropped. And eventually the posts here ended and the ONLY posts I did were for her. But I would rather spend time talking to her or doing things for her than writing to her. That, for me, is what love is. I have this giant hole in my life trying to come up with something to fill it.

To be healthy I need to fill this hole with friends and healthy activities. I need to find a way to spend my time following the secret to happy life and focus on the things in life I want to make real. My mind can't be focused on loss and pain. It needs to be full of damn near anything else.

Blogs aren't designed for lovers. They may be a way to share with others what you intend for the one you love, but, ultimately, most of us are lonely at heart, and being part of the blogging community makes us part of something, which is more than we get from any of our other appliances when you get right down to it.
