I think most of your long-time readers think deeply (as you do), value family and friends (as you do), respect the natural resources and fight to preserve what we have and pass it on as our legacy. I think you and I try very hard not to discuss political things too much although at times, the stupidity and mistrust and downright horridness or our leaders ..... well, sometimes we just can't hold it in any more!<br /><br />As you know, one of my worse faults as a person who comments on your lovely blog is that......I talk too much!Peace Thymehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17361079101751470855noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-54351416389831567342018-06-21T20:15:27.036+01:002018-06-21T20:15:27.036+01:00I like that too Graham.

It is disturbing to think you and others have commented on my blog and they have not appeared in my mail inbox of spam (which I check regularly). I only introduced comment moderation as I was getting a lot of comments in Chinese or from bogus bloggers. Maybe it's time to undo that and trust most comments will be genuine.ADDYhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01018958238940897902noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-73877837296530031992018-06-21T10:16:07.298+01:002018-06-21T10:16:07.298+01:00Thank you for this characteristically well-conside...Thank you for this characteristically well-considered response Meike and thank you for your friendship and support through the months and years we have known each other.

I can see what she means by the "bubble", but I think if we read blog posts and - sometimes even more important! - other comments thoroughly, we become soon aware of such differences.<br />On your blog, you have not been afraid to express controversial views and opinions, and you have had some comments that were definitely not friendly and not in agreement.<br />Not everyone is like me - when I don't agree, more often than not, I leave it at that and do not say much (or anything) about the subject. That is cowardly of me, I know.<br /><br />Another example is Pat's blog (Weaver of Grass). Her readers all really like her (otherwise they would not be reading her blog), but between them, they often have VERY different opinions and also voice them.<br />That is certainly a good thing, as long as decency is maintained and people do not throw obscenities at each other or start discriminating someone for their different views.<br /><br />For me, reading blogs from people all over the world means I get a glimpse into what the world is like for them. Most of them live completely different from my way of life; often, it seems very exotic to me what they do and how they spend their time. But even more often, like Bonnie and Maria have said, I find similarities between us.Librarianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05704656564078750607noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-13883584.post-10263822531993123562018-06-21T07:17:44.685+01:002018-06-21T07:17:44.685+01:00Sorry I also missed your blog yesterday.
