I will be the first to admit that I don't leave comments at other journal the way I should. And for that I am sorry. Especially if that is what is helping others to keep writting.
I just visited a journal (that I had been to several times) and read in her Feb 2nd entry that she was quitting the journal. I hope that anyone who is reading this will rush over and give her a word of encouragment. Maybe she will be back to see what we have written.
ps...past the word....

this entry has made me think about why i keep an aol journal .. i absolutely love that i have regular readers who are so wonderful about leaving comments .. but i wonder if i'd stop writing if nobody read it .. and honestly, i'd have to say that writing is my therapy and has been for longer than i care to admit .. so i'm not sure i'd ever really stop writing .. hmmm .. you've got me thinking

It can be dangerous to your emotional health if your decision to write hinges on the responses you get. But if that is this woman's intent -- to journal and to get comments -- I would suggest that she at least make an effort to befriend others who write similar journals. Or, others with whom she feels she has common interests.
Just my two. (And I'll share this over at her journal, too, since I've never seen her here.)
