"It was the best of times, it was the worst of times...".

I think this quote by Charles Dickens applies to the time in which we live. And one of the aspects of the "best of times" is our ability to keep connected through this incredible technology we have now. I absolutely love to read others' blog entries to find out what's on their minds, what they have been doing, what they have been struggling with. The miles between us melt and there is an instant connection. It is a blessing to me because several hundred and several thousand miles separate me from beloved family members. We don't get to see each other every day. But blogging is the next best thing! I also get to meet very interesting people that I otherwise would never meet. Hooray for blogging!
