Is it Narcissism, Therapy or the Beginnings of a Book?

Is it narcissism, therapy or the beginnings of a book? Is all of this writing I’ve been doing helpful to anyone other than me?    I read recently a wonderful quote about how writing can help the world feel right again.  It can open us up to our inner thoughts and help us navigate bumpy times.  It has certainly been that for me over the last few years.  It has been a wonderful way to celebrate adventures (see Ten Legs and a Tale posts of our epic girl’s road trip to Colorado) or bemoan the painful process of growing older.  It has allowed me to share my very scary health journey and gather incredible love and support from my friends and loved ones (CaringBridge).  Writing has been a way to share ideas and make sense of the world.  Since I have been quite limited in what I’ve been able to do over the last months, I am reading and writing more and more.  It is a wonderful way for me to feel connected and grounded.  So I invite you to follow along on my personal blog-  rememberingwhatIknow@blogspot.com or on Caringbridge (https://www.caringbridge.org/visit/perryisperky).  Ironically that blog is called Perry is Perky, even when I have been feeling far from perky.  I have finally sorted out a Follow feature on my personal blog so that you can subscribe. I will continue to post health updates on CaringBridge and hope they will be few and far between.  Remember What You Know, my personal blog, will continue to be the place where I reflect and celebrate all the wonders of this life.   I invite you to join me.
