Absence makes the heart grow fonder?

Several months ago I put on my facebook status how much I enjoy writing and said that I'm praying about how God can use that.

Well, lately I've had writer's block, which has been frustrating.  I've been wanting to write, but I haven't felt like I've had much to say.  I have several friends who blog daily and I love reading their blogs.  I would love to write every day, but I don't really have anything that I feel like is "worth" sharing every day.  

There are things I'd like to write about, but are so personal that I don't know if I necessarily want them "out there" for the entire internet to read.  Sure, I'm all for being transparent about my struggles in parenting, or in life, but when it comes to things like friendships and other relationships I have a lot to say, but am scared.

I am, by both nature AND nurture, a people pleaser.  I'm scared of writing/saying something that is offensive (especially since I've inadvertantly done that several times recently when I didn't think I was being controversial) and writing about some of the lessons.

The fact that I have become scared into silence, my insecurity about whether or not I have anything "worth" writing about, and the fact I'd like to keep certain details about my family (names and other identifying details) off the internet has led to my silence.

This rambling post is my first venture "back" to blogging.   I'm hoping tomorrow I can find the time to write about the great day my kids and I had yesterday!
