Also I think I'd be embarrassed to share a lot of my inner thoughts, details about my life. Not because they're embarrassing per se, but because people judge! I know- I used to judge a lot. You will find what you are comfortable with and we will keep reading as long as there is something to read.

If blogging anonymously is what can give you total freedom, then you should, because you have a great, passionate blog and a true talent for writing and it would be sad for you to have to give it up (and the therapy you get from it). When you write about something, you make all of us stop and think a little more. <br />I do however feel that you have managed pretty well up to now, without giving in to doubts and guilt and insecurity. Because that is who you are and you have remained true to yourself. <br />So before changing, you have to figure out if you are really hurting people by writing the blog or just making some around you uncomfortable. I mean, you do write painful things about yourself that may not be pleasant to read for those who love you, because they love you, but how much are you truly hurting others? Maybe sharing personal news with those closest to you before "your" whole world reads it could be an option, just to prepare them, but in truth you are not writing about them. And let's be honest, over the months you have dropped a few bombs and how much has that truly changed your everyday life and relations with others? People talk and give their unwanted opinions whether you write things or not.<br />I totally understand the responsibility of being a mother, a wife, a daughter and so on and so forth and I am the first to admit I don't have your guts. But your capability of sharing the good and bad, the gritty and the sometimes shameful is what makes you who you are and an honest, true writer.<br />So friend, weigh out what is more important to you. If you give this up, do it because you feel it is the best choice for yourself and your conscience, because of how it affects you and your life, not others'. <br />P.S. Thank you for the mention, I am honoredNutsaboutfooditalynoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1469769641341081396.post-82660984205584370112012-04-13T00:17:23.989+02:002012-04-13T00:17:23.989+02:00Wow, first off, what a pleasing surprise for Nero ...Wow, first off, what a pleasing surprise for Nero to be mentioned in such a serious and sincere post -- most honored indeed, amica.<br />And secondly, I think part of the beauty of Moomser has always been that it is sui generis to you and to your life as you've experienced it over the last few years. I've always considered it a very brave, soul-baring blog -- many of us would wish to be able to share even more of ourselves as you have done.<br />Also, I would imagine that being able to vent your emotions would be an excellent form of self-expression and therapy. <br />So though we all ask ourselves questions about what we share, and though we all feel doubts or fears to some extent about wounding others or exposing ourselves to ridicule, I would advise you to remain true to yourself, as you've always done, and to continue doing just what you're doing here. <br />We love it and those who do know you in the flesh and who do care very much about the minute goings on of your days feel privileged to be privy to your world.<br />It's like we get to live in your head...er, almost ;)...and it also makes us all feel a little less insane. <br />So carry on Moomser, please do. <br />Chau and baci, Alcira<br /><br />nerochronicles.comAlcira Molina-Alinoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1469769641341081396.post-88155401411388824272012-04-12T07:46:51.150+02:002012-04-12T07:46:51.150+02:00This is a tough one.

It's work isn't it? I hope you keep sharing and I can find you. Wherever you are. But I understand if you choose to stop. (But I'l miss you.)Bridgethttp://Twinisms.com/noreply@blogger.com
