The best dots are the ones you don't own

Boy, was I thrilled with this week's dots over at Liz's blog. Sometimes you read blogs and write about the ones that resonate with you not really knowing if that was the original intent of the blogger. So when the dots I found took the time to comment enthusiastically about the way I interpreted them, it was like getting zapped by static electricity when you come too close to something that's highly charged. These dots were highly charged!

I know we bandy about the word, authenticity a lot. But that doesn't mean the word should lose it's meaning. I often wonder whether I should be bold and open up much of what I feel and what I've been through. These blogs showed me that there is so much to gain by doing so because our life experiences are hardly unique.

And when we dare to share, we run risk that we may inspire somebody!

Is that such a bad thing? I think not!

I'm so grateful that Liz made space on her blog for my tiny contribution each week. She gave me the crayons and I'm having too much fun connecting dots!

Generosity is so infectious, isn't it? Everybody gets to feel good!

BTW: you can follow all the dots I've been collecting using this nifty feature we wrote at TheGoodBlogs. I use it to track all the posts I make on Liz's blog.
