I really appreciate it. There's no doubt that social media serves as a form of escapism - for myself as well. But with all the talk lately regarding comparing oneself to others (and the way we tend to see others as doing better than ourselves) it felt like a good time to 'keep it real'. At any rate, glad to be breathing a bit of life back into 'The Bedlam' and glad for the support of readers like you! xx :)Uncle Beefyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01865761598525174229noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-22108565.post-64622040551995465382014-05-07T22:12:51.556-07:002014-05-07T22:12:51.556-07:00Hi Aimee!

I think this post is perfection and speaks to so many right now. The comparisons, the control/or lack of it. The perspectives and assumptions. My husband is going thru a job change and I am choosing to look at it as what are we going to learn from this…otherwise I would loose my mind. And for my pity parties there may be a cupcake or two involved! Wishing you well. Much love.

You ...I am so happy to see you're back Uncle B. You have been missed for sure, not just by me either - I was talking to a blogger friend the other day wondering what happened. I so appreciate your honesty in this post and I'm really sorry to hear you've had a bad time recently. <br /><br />It can be so easy with social media to think everyone else is living a dream existence where nothing goes wrong. I posted a picture a while back on IG of the stain on my brand new carpet where my friend's dog had done a giant sh*t! Some people got it, like I was trying to say - life isn't perfect guys - look, sh*t literally happens. (I have a dog too so it's not a big deal really, they can't help it sometimes). But some people really didn't like it and said they didn't follow west egg to see this kind of depressing thing. It was really interesting. Sometimes I wonder if social media, particularly pinterest and IG (because they are so visual) are a form of escapism. Whatever, I'm just so happy you're back - you've made my day!

Now I've got more then 700 in my Feedly! Those bloggers that seem to make it easy have help! They have ways to monetize their output, etc. <br /><br />I'd say, if you do the work, they will come. Even small regular posts of BofB are better than no posts. I too had a really sucky '13, so I'm claiming '14 for breakthrough (sounds like you are too!), and not letting the junk in the world get me down. Your blog is an originator, and as such you will always have a large, loyal following!

Although, I feel a little late to the game if I allow myself to, dare I say it, compare myself to others. I hear you on knowing others who never seem to figure it out. But witnessing their difficulties has also helped me on my own journey so they have gifted me in their own way. Not to say I believe I've figured it all out.<br /><br />Anyhoozles, thanks for taking the time to read and comment. I really appreciate it and your kind support.
