Not Bothered

I'm creeping into my late twenties, and obviously I'm single. This doesn't bother me, but it seems almost socially unacceptable to say that you're not only quite happy being single, but at this point in my life, I'm really not interested in getting involved with anyone. This is probably a response to the two years where my inner life was dominated by two emotionally overlapping and dysfunctional in different ways relationships. Now I really appreciate getting to concentrate all my emotional…See More

How has blogging helped you?

I'm curious to know about the experiences of anyone where blogging has helped them achieve a concrete non-blogging/social networking goal, particularly related to charitable or fundraising goals.When I was based in China, I used my blog to ask people to send me modern English language books for my students, who couldn't access them. I was actually quite prepared for no response (espcially as at the time, I was blocked from many…See More

We all love the blogs about weddings, and having babies... but isn't getting there (or not) half the fun?

At 3:04pm on January 6, 2010, Joy Engdahl said…: hey thanks! i will be moving there to work with a home for girls who have come out prostitution...working in bars and brothels and whatnot. At this home, the girls receive practical training in new skills, counseling & healing, and since it is a faith-based mission, they receive spiritual guidance as well. I spent 2 weeks there in August and can't wait to go longer! The photos on your blog are beautiful! Great to connect with another traveler!
