Blog Comments Appreciated

I am wondering why the vast majority of my readers never commented on my last blog post, when it was surely very clear that I really needed to hear from you all… so, yes… it bothers me and creates an element of distrust for me.  I ask myself… “Why are you reading my blog posts then?  Why are you there?  Who can I trust out there in the world with what is so deep in my heart that I have chosen to share So openly with you all up till now?

Without ever advertising my blog yet, because I can’t afford the amount needed: (Readers page views per week… last week: 23 July 18: 1105 page views and today:  941 page views… my last blog post “IS THIS MY LAST BLOG POST?  You get to decide…” was posted on 21st July).   

Below, is an e-mail from a Logotherapist in Guatemala who has convinced me that I do need to continue with my blog, because she is a virtual stranger to me and it seems that my sharing is making a difference for her in her work with young girls who have been abused.
Below the e-mail are some more cherished comments that were posted on the Patty’s Keys Facebook page.  I am so grateful for all who have taken the time to bring me the needed reassurance to just keep going with this heart-work of mine.

I would still like to hear from more strangers though… not just my friends and family… I need to know if my shares are serving a real purpose and helping others.  Either those suffering from the effects of child abuse… or helping those who are doing the abusing to STOP… or, helping people who have not been abused to understand the abused better and step in and take action to stop it and to help the victims of abuse… most especially the innocence and mental integrity of our children.  I'd also like to know if my shares are helping professionals to understand their clients better, etc.

Dear Pan...  please don’t stop to write for those who are reading your messages as me!
I’m reading all posts from Guatemala!
You are very important for me, for my work and for many people.. please don’t stop!!
Love you very much
RM (Logotherapist)

BN: (colleague) My friend, what stuck out for me was this quote “Anyway… I must just keep moving forward… be it in slow-motion or what… the work must go on, regardless of this great desire to run from it forever… escape reality and responsibility…” Giving up on your dream would be a tragedy beyond words. If needs be, take it in slow motion: write when you want to, when you want to, about whatever you want to, taking all the time you need. But don’t run away from this, your contribution means too much to be abandoned.  Sending lots of love!
Patty's Keys:  Thanks so much my dear friend... it means the world to me that you take the time to read what I share on my blog. I would love for you to comment there so that if there is going to be support like this, that people can see that there are other people who appreciate my sharing there and support it. I fear that there are so many people judging me because of the openness and honesty of my blog shares that I could do with the support there right now. You can even use a pseudonym to write there. I just need to know for sure... am I there making a fool of myself, or is my sharing making a difference for good. So, I thank you with all my heart for your comment on it all here and I am so grateful for you and your ongoing tremendous understanding support. Love you lots.
BN:  Of course my friend, I will do that. There is never foolishness in being open, only courage. It takes courage to express what millions of us are going through but don’t have the words or ability to express. It is a gift that you give to us which would leave us poorer if you took it away. Lots of love!!
Patty's Keys:  It's so hard to believe and yet such a gift to have your words for my heart. I'm truly grateful. Thanks so much for your love today and always and mine to you in return ♥♥♥
 
LP: (colleague) Your blog, while a possible healing avenue for you, also heals others by way of knowing they are not alone with their suffering and creates a virtual network of healing - it is never nice to hear that people are going through tough times: I hope it is not your last post 🕊
Patty's Keys:  Bless you dear L, and thanks a million for your lovely response which I appreciate so very much. Have a good evening and sweet dreams to you and yours with lots of love ♥♥♥
 
M MN E: (Facebook friend) I read the post and so much of it resounds with me. I find your posts soooo helpful. You often give voice to my feeling without even knowing that you are. Often your posts put into words, thoughts and feelings that I cannot express. You also share a lot of insight psychologically...this is so helpful to me. I too have felt the need to distance my self (in person) from a variety of people and just rest and find peace and calm again. It has really helped. Sabbaticals are so good for healing. Those that love you will understand. I really hope you keep writing your posts. I tried to comment but for some reason I couldn't. Will try again later. Hugs and love ♥
Patty's Keys:  Your response along with the others here have made me feel a lot stronger today and I am truly grateful to you and the others who have responded. Thanks so much dear M... I cherish my friendships here and your support so much. Goodnight and take care. Love you too <3
Patty's Keys:  Yes... please do try and post on the blog post... that would be great if you can get it to work. Maybe it will work tomorrow... HUGS ♥
 
DRC: (colleague) Never stop my Pana.. There is so much strength in your vulnerability. You are the person I know would never judge me for anything I would share with you. Not many people have the courage to be as authentic as you are. You inspire me.
Patty's Keys: Thank you my dearest D, your message is very strengthening to me... thank you for your sustaining love and friendship always and for never giving up on me no matter what. I'm very grateful for you in my life ♥ and I love you very much ♥
 
VB VM: (Facebook friend) I have just read your latest blog, my heart aches for you. I don't understand how people can hurt or judge you, you are one of the nicest people I know. And you're not being judged by God for not paying your tithes. In the Catholic church our priest always said those who can afford to donate, can do so. Those who can't will never be rejected or judged. Our one priest told me personally that our homes and families must come first when it comes to available money. God loves you and so do we! And I'm sure your blog helps many people - and those who judge don't deserve to be there.
Patty's Keys:  Thank you dearest V... so much for your kind and encouraging words and love. I am so grateful for your friendship over all these years and do hope that one day I get to meet you and all my precious Facebook friends who have stood by me for so long and journeyed with me and put up with my sometimes long, sometimes babbling roller-coaster of posts. You will always be such a treasure to my heart... thank you ♥♥♥
 
EM: (colleague) Dear Pana, you are truly an inspiration to me. Your spirit is bright and strong, you have never given up on life, and Patty’s Key’s is proof of your defiant spirit. You have overcome and you are a true survivor of life that can be so incredibly painful. Expressing your pain in the way you do, makes you the most transparent and honest person I have ever met - it is a true testament to the value of life which I find so beautiful. 🌈💐💚💪🏻
Patty's Keys:  It means so much to me to receive responses from my dear LogoFriends and family... thank you also for your beautiful and uplifting words of encouragement and love... I'm so grateful for people like you in my life who help me to feel that it's okay to be me...  ♥ (If you can post to the blog also, that would be great. If not, it's okay)... ♥ Love you lots ♥
 
PLEASE LEAVE YOUR COMMENT:  I am asking once more for people to comment on my blog to let me know if it’s helping and making a difference in this world.  I feel that this is what I was born to do as a result of my life experiences.

NOTE:  You may use a pseudonym in place of your name… and you don’t need to enter a website address or an e-mail address to post a comment.  I have just posted a notice comment on the last blog post to check and it posted without either of the addresses. 

 
A huge Thank you for all who do read my blog for “good”, and not just for morbid curiosity for what I’m sharing and something to gossip about. 

Thank you to all who clicked on “Like” on my last blog post.  I take this as an affirmation that I have your support and for that I am grateful… And a very special thank you to all who took the time to respond by commenting on that post… it meant the world to me to hear from you.  Because of you all, I have decided to continue posting on my blog.  Thank you so much! ♥

Your blog touched me deeply this morning especially about David and how he gave you a huge hug and stayed with you, and your kindness in giving him a loaf of bread. These are the small kindnesses that make a difference in this world today. Your neighbour with all his car noise will likely be evicted soon. Has anyone spoken to him about his nocturnal habits? His parents probably have. This noise must be keeping them awake too. They probably need some kindness from those around them too. Your blog is such a blessing as you share your love and understanding with those who read your blog. It certainly touches my heart especially because I know how kind and caring you are. ..A very safe and loving person. Thank you for your goodness and desire to help everyone around you, near and far. Sending love, hugs and prayers always. Pat

Bless you my lovely sister... as always, I am so grateful for your loving support and understanding (previous post).

I hardly ever get to see the old parents next door... they both go out to work, while their son is in and out of their house all day long, so I'm not sure he has a regular job, other than to bring home broken cars to fix and sell. Whatever happens, his disturbing behaviour has been reported by two neighbours that I know about, so hopefully there will be a change for good now. He is not allowed to be fixing cars on the complex property as it is. There are other things about his behaviour that just don't add up... for instance, washing one of the cars and putting the mats out on our outside lawn to dry, when he's got a perfectly good lawn of his own to put the mats on... it makes no sense to me at all! Oh well, some things I can overlook, but disturbing his neighbours sleep is just too much! I love you so much my sister... HUGS ♥

    Since as far back as I can remember, family, friends, complete strangers and strangely even animals (birds included) have come to me for help and comfort and I have always felt the calling to be there for others in any way that I possibly can.
