she started telling me how it helps her to write her thoughts down. All I could think about was
that I don't ever think I would want anyone to know the things going through my mind. Without
really saying that to her I think she must have known what I was thinking because she then began to
tell me how she had a "dark blog". A blog that only she could read. She said there are times when she
goes back and reads it and is shocked at things she wrote. I just kept thinking that is exactly
what I need to do.
I have not started a "Dark blog" yet. Still thinking about it though. Really starting thinking
about it last night. This morning as the thought of the blog was going through my mind
I popped on my sisters blog "stack of plates" and saw that she had a side blog too. I popped onto her
"stack of thoughts" and saw that it is exactly what I would expect. It is a blog of spiritual
thoughts. Of course it is, it is Rachel. You see whenever I need advice and I know I
need someone to tell me what I need to hear and not what I want to hear I go to Rachel.
She always puts a spiritual spin on things and puts me back on the right track.
I would like to think she has a "dark blog" too, but if she does I don't know about it.
So, until I decide if I do a dark blog or not, I will know where to go to get my
spiritual spin on things. She may have started the blog to free up time in her day from
our phone calls. I can hear her voice mail message now, "this is Rachel I am busy right now, if this
is Heather read my blog and if you still need to talk leave a message...beep".
I'm so thankful for a sister who isn't afraid to say things I don't always want to hear and
there are many times I really don't want to hear it, but later go back and realize it is exactly
what I needed.

She does have a talent. It's great to know that your sister is your close friend.
You make me cry! Gotta love sisters!
I like the idea of a "dark blog" I also have times when I really need to get out what I am really feeling, but wouldn't want anyone to see or hear it. A dark blog may just work. Also, I think sisters are the best!!! I have a few that always seem to keep me on my toes as well. I hope that whatever is bugging you, gets better.
awwww I feel like it's my birthday today! That's the sweetest post. Thank you!
I started a dark blog once and then realized how little I really needed it and haven't really been back. I think it's a good idea though. You're lucky to have a sister like that, not all of us are.
