Why I love the blogosphere

One day years ago a woman found my blog and left me a comment that said something like I have a dog named Anu and I love samosas.  Ever since that day those woman's words have resonated so much with me that I thought somewhere along the way we were supposed to cross paths.  I miss her writing, but know that her absence in the blog world is due to all the amazing things happening in her life.  I have this hope that one day we will meet and become friends.  Tonight I was excited to come across her words and images again and I read them and thought about all the things in my life I'm holding back from doing because I'm afraid.  And I look at her blog and think here is a living example of a woman taking the dream she had in her mind and making it appear in her daily life.  I'm wondering what would happen if I did what she said and got out of my own way.
