A Blog Harvest

Looking through my blog reading list today, I thought, "Man, what an assortment, it's a bumper crop Sunday." Fitting for the Fall. And so, this blogpost is a cornucopia of  regular bloggers' work, which is today, quite varied and from across the world.

Well! That should keep you reading on this last day of September.

I may or may not get back later to post news. I'm so entirely sick of the world that I've taken a break, but the stories are piling up in my inbox and it's time to sort it out. More coffee, maybe something to eat first. Today I'm very aware of how lucky I am to have all these choices. So many have nothing. As my Dad said, "It's not that life's not good, it's that life isn't fair." No, it's not fair. But there are times when it's really bloody good.

Great selection..thanks for the shout.
No life isn't fair, no one told us it would be, but sometimes it is so good it is almost unbearable.

Echoing mybabyjohn/Delores. We were taught that an magazing which published only good news was started up in the fifties, and folded after two issues because no-one was interested. So much of the news is so ugly at the moment that I think I would like some good news to counterbalance it. General good news, not personal happiness (good as that is).

Wow, this is quite a list of interesting tidbits. Thanks. And your dad was right. Life isn't fair, but it's the best thing we've got.

Awww, thanks, Laura! XX

Glad you reminded me about Andrew's blog. There's a couple I need to put back on my list as I just forget to check if it's not on there.

I often wished we had a paper expressly for good news! We need things to balance it out. Or I do.

A Greg interview... I will have to squeeze that in when I can! :)
