One thing I've learned with blogging is it can take a lot of time & you have to network with other blogs to be successful at it, which I'm not. :blush: I'm a difficult person to please. I don't want to hear about the new outfits someone bought or the bickering of a spouse. I enjoy humor blogs (which are usually politically motivated so I won't be sharing those ):blush:, beagle blogs (because I like talking with other beagle owners) & I love this blog.

I found Robin's blog when I was doing a search. Then I joined the blogcatalog she also belongs too but I still haven't found anyone that is as free as she is.
I love this poem that she posted on her blog. I remember when someone freaked out when I told them just because the phone rings doesn't mean you have to answer it. It's much more than that but anyway :blush: I think you guys understand and I thought you might enjoy it.
I WILL
Listen, I’ve decided:
Life is too precious to ponder
the petty details any longer
and to put it bluntly
I will not participate.
I will not be coming to the party.
I will not be returning the call.
I will not be anything to anyone.
I will stare at the gray sky till it is blue.
I will walk in the green fields and
smell the wildflowers.
I will imbibe this life the way
it was meant to be imbibed.
I will listen only to my body
and the black crows.
I will live by the true laws of the Land.
I will pick wild blackberries and pet cats.
I will write poems I share
only with the wind.
I will raise a child
on the edge of nowhere.
I will nourish her on magic and honey.
I will teach her
the languages of fairies.
We will play in
the forest at twilight.
We will hurl all hardship
downhill to the sea.
