For most of history, Anonymous was a woman.
— Virginia Woolf
Where do you find your inspiration? As far as blogging goes, I read a number of people, particularly women, who write beautifully, humorously, truthfully, about their lives and the people in them, and I long to be among them. I don’t think I always succeed, but here and there perhaps you can catch glimpses of what I aspire to do.
Today, one of my favorites wrote about her mother who passed away unexpectedly several years ago. Reading her post, as with most of the things she shares about her family, brought tears to my eyes. Partly because I was sad for her, but also because her writing about grief is at once heartbreaking and hopeful, and that’s a combination that really speaks to me.
So for today’s post, I thought I’d link to a couple of my favorite posts by a few of my favorite women bloggers. I hope they move you as much as they moved me.

I’m with ya Mel. I hope to someday just be half the writer of some of the blog authors I read.
No objections. Thank you. The family memories post was something I needed to re-read lately – I was just thinking about it yesterday.
Certainly no objections. It’s an honor. I love reading your work as well, and have really enjoyed this past month of your blog!
Thanks for the link 🙂
