withholding....information. From. You.

I am on a break. i don't have much i feel like blogging about.

I'd just like to point out that i don't blog about everything that is going on here.

so, while i divulge alot, i do withhold certain things.

sometimes that alone is a strain on me.

often i omit the truly worrisome things that plague me in real life. for whatever reason.

sometimes i just don't want that info out there or certain people reading it. or maybe i can't actually cope with everyone knowing details of my life.

and sometimes i think, if i ignore something maybe it will go away.

so in case you ever wondered. yeah i do withhold information from you.

I think it is ok to withhold information. It is the really tough stuff we deal with that we do withhold, but I do think it owes us.

When you can start to tackle a problem, it is then able to be freed.

When we thought my son was dying, I gave only vague updates. It was too scary.

When I was told my son had special needs and developmentally delayed, I told no one. I have now accepted what I can and feel comfortable with our future. (I am ok waiting one more year to see if he can swallow.)

I hope what burns a hole in your mind gets better. I hope it leaves and sets you free.

I withhold a lot on my blog too. Mostly I don't think people want to read about all the lousy stuff happening in my life. They read to be entertained, so I stick to lighter topics.

I hear ya. I like to keep it all cheery. No one needs to know my reality.

I'm with you mama! I mostly think I can't be so terribly interesting to people that they'd want to read Everything I have to say:) And there are some things that many would probably find funny, but I am too embarrassed to post. Lol! I also leave out the sad things, those I don't want to dwell on and therefore don't want others to dwell on either... Or things I am unable to face yet. But I hope you know that many of your followers are more than just fair-weather friends:) I think you would find love and support if you did feel the need for the ocassional not-so-happy/perfect post.

I totally with-hold stuff. You know that~ I end up venting to you in person on occasion.
I hope things start to feel better soon. Reality sucks sometimes.
Call me if I can help.

Maybe you should have a totally private blog that only you can read. Like a journal. I have a few friends that do that just to get the ideas out there but not to get them "out there" in cyberspace ya know?
I pray whatever it is gets better soon.

it's ok to withhold.... i do it a lot. blogs are on a 'need to know' basis... and sometimes not everyone needs to know. i have some great stories too, but can't share them because i know there are certain people in my 'audience' who wouldn't appreciate it, if you know what i mean. um, and i loved your rose analogy in the last post. yeah, i agree with one of the comments, you keep that kind of thinking up and you'll find yourself a relief society teacher. i love, though, what you said about dr. pepper. i, myself, have never been a soda drinker, but there are other things in my life that could be done away with. i like the idea of not being 'dependent' on things. you know? good luck with whatever you decide!!

hugs,

I think that is okay....you can't tell the world everything. I have to say I enjoy your blog so much because it always puts a smile on my face. I hope that this break you speak off clears up soon!

Oh man that is why I have my own private blog that cannot even be found in the search engines. It's my journal. the title is the date I write the entry. Every yr I will probably print it out in a book format. (Poor people who read it as it gets printed..., you know they DO... will be scarred for life!) I have been withholding something personal for a year now and it ALL goes in there. Oh and to my therapist. LOL
