What to blog about?

Blogs are a funny thing. Some bloggers blog about their hobbies, some to document their family's doings, some to share their intermost thoughts. I am not sure where I fall. A bit of each. But, what to blog about today? I just found out a dear friend of mine has MS. My heart aches for her and her family. I can't even express how sad this makes me. So, I had planned on blogging today about some funny things that happened during our week, maybe about a new deal I found, or how homeschooling is going, but since I found out about my friend, blogging about that just seemed so silly. How can I blog about how happy-go-lucky I am feeling when I know she is not? The past little while I have had a friend with cancer and now I have a friend with MS. Ever read the NieNie blog? So wonderful, and sad, and faith building all at the same time. I can't help but think, "Geez, this journey called life is hard and not fun sometimes." It is hard. Dang hard. How do we cope? Where do we find peace in all this? I know where and so do you, don't you? I am grateful for a loving Savior that suffered all so he would know how to comfort us. I have called upon him for comfort many times. How grateful I am for Him and for a loving Heavenly Father who I know loves us and does not leave us alone. To my dear friend, I love ya. Everyone does. Hang in there. It's going to be ok.
