A Cry in the Dark

how my blog got its name.....

You know that feeling of being so disconnected from the world that no one would miss you if you were gone? When you question the purpose of being here? Why keep trying?

When I feel like that, it always seems so dark. The sun doesn’t shine as brightly, the colors of the world seem muddy. I feel as though I have no voice and my words are unheard. No matter what I say, it is ignored just as the buzzing of a gnat is not noticed.

When I began this blog, I was going through one of those times. Some of you may remember the original version, the one I destroyed. It was my intention to walk away completely and never look back. I’m glad I didn’t.

This blog was my cry in the dark. It was my effort to find my voice and have it be heard again. Even though the world looks much brighter today, I’m leaving the name as a reminder to myself. If you cry out loud enough, hard enough, and long enough, someone will come to offer you a hand back to the world.
