I walk the line.... Strains of that Johnny Cash song run through my head.
Well, I also have the tune of Lady GaGa's Eh, Eh in my mind ... And Bruno Mars' Juat The Way You Are.
But it's Walk the Line that I want to write about . Because it describes the blogging experience .
I blog to share with family and friends. I blog about our life, as unschoolers, hence the title Living Without School. It is my personal blog. I write of our life , my life , our experiences, my experiences, our interests, my interests.
If you check the 1, 222 ( now 1,223!) blog posts since 2005, you will see a variety of posts on a variety of topics. Reflecting current interests.
In recent times, that interest has been the public liturgy of the Church.
I post our every day stuff, the liturgical year, to friends on Facebook. I tend, since the advent of Facebook, to publish D & M stuff only here on the blog, and daily stuff on Facebook.... D & M as in Deep and Meaningful. For me. As much as I can be deep and meaningful I guess.
And so I walk the line. How much to post? How much of me to share?
But, ultimately, the fact remains that this is my blog.
It is not a public discussion forum. It is not an online debate.
It is, pure and simple, my blog .
You don't have to read it if you don't want to. Or if you don't like the posts. Or my writing style.
Read other blogs if not mine .
It's okay.
I will continue to blog. To share my life without school. To share my interests.
To try to walk the line.

Thanks Lisa! I really like your blog on recovering, iykwim.
I hope you continue to share and blog. I always love to read your thoughts, here and on FB.
Isn't the internet great for sharing?? Hope to catch up IRL some time, too!
Leonie, you're spot on! This is not a public discussion board!!! If anyone has a problem with what you write, well, yes, simply they can go somewhere else!!! Please, please keep up the good work!!!
Hi Leonie,
I have often wanted to write to you to tell you how much I like to read your writing! Thank you for blogging. I bet you have more readers out there who also appreciate what you write. I read your blog as often as I can and enjoy it very much. I find it encouraging. I am sorry it took me so long to tell you! :-)
