the last comment I received for this blog was 7/27/2017. 

I'm going to assume that no one is reading it. 

I may be wrong; 

I say that because 5 years ago I felt that no one was reading it,

and I stopped posting,

and about 3 months later, 

I was at a party,

and 

a friend said he hasn't seen a blog post from me in about 3 months.

I didn't even know he was reading it. 

I would have known he was reading it had he commented on any of the postings.

I feel like I need to stop blogging again; 

but i'll continue because he and others may be paying attention to it.

something my mom said a few years ago just popped in my head;

she spoke of wanting her loved ones to give her roses before she dies.

once she's dead she has no way of knowing she was loved if roses were given to her after death.

so when I visit her, I make sure to go to a florist to get a dozen roses 

before I get to her house. 

It's important to let people know they are loved and appreciated.

one should never have to wonder.

one should never have to stop what they're passionate about doing 

with the thought that no one would notice

if

they 

stopped.
