@ Liara Covert:

How do you have such innate wisdom?

I love how you put it when you said that the universe has its own way of balancing things. That’s so true. It truly gives back to those to genuinely reach out to touch a life, which is mysterious to begin with! The universe with all its laws are also mysterious.

In endless ways, your posts encourage people to rethink their own notion of inter-connectedness with everyone, everywhere. This is a very valuable thing. The desire to foster good will can evolve to come naturally in everyone. As people choose to explore what other people are saying or exploring on their blogs, this gesture also offers insight into one’s own evolution. Its a win-win situation. As your post here reminds us, the universe has its own way of balancing things. Your gesture of kindness sent positive energy out into the universe and the universe responded in ways you had not anticipated

That’s true – we never know what’s around the corner!

@ Liara Covert:

While I do believe everything happens based on our thoughts and feelings, I also believe it’s important to “Let Go and Let God” and allow myself to be in the flow.

Throughout many of your comments on this blog, you frequently refer to how I am always changing, which means my thoughts and feelings are also changing. On top of that, the one thing that never changes is how the universe is constantly changing!

As you imply, a person never knows what is around the next bend. If you believe everything that happens depends on your thoughts and feelings, then you begin to feel a degree of control and responsibility to exert some kind of effort. You are changing all the time and opportunities will come knocking when you least expect it.

Lisa:

When I visit other blogs, I also like to see what others are saying too. It makes for an interesting read over and above what the blogger wrote.

Thanks to you too for your suggestions – seems like the virtual assistant industry is poised for fast growth going forward. I welcome your little “plug.” Wink, wink.

Oh, I knew you were having some fun with this – that’s why I let it stand. I feel like I’ve gotten to know you and appreciate your humor.

Good suggestions! Like I said earlier, I’ll deal with the prospect of an explosion of comments when I cross that bridge. But one thing is for sure, I’ll never close down the comment section. I think that is like choking off oxygen – I don’t know how other bloggers do it and get away with it.

Thanks for your input!

Lisa Marie,
I too love this community. Such educated, thought provoking and interesting comments. It lends to such a great community. I love reading what others are saying to those that posted comments.

For those that have gotten “big” in the blogosphere, I think forums are great, just not a by-product of a successful blog. Turning off the comments, hmm, not a fan of that, but understandable.

So, here comes my plug (ahem)… So what would you do if you have too many comments than time? Hire a virtual assistant. Should one want to keep the integrity of having a real person reading the responses allowing emotion to still be a part of the blog is critical. After laying out ground rules as to what comments should be reviewed personally, then a virtual assistant can still keep your blog connected on a human level. It’s not the actual blogger, but the assistant that is part of their team.

Lisa Callsen’s last blog post..Do people really want to learn to sign, or is it something more?
