So you are a blogger, huh? And I smile: I know you are. And I know who you are. I see your avatar, I see your IP address, I see your face and I read your words. When you leave a comment here my heart sings with joy.
And I answer: to show you how much I appreciate your effort to write those two three lines.
Thank you!
Above you’ve just read my reasons. That’s why I answer to your comments. That’s why I give you the “link love.” It’s nothing, compared to what I really owe you. But I don’t have the time, nor the power, to embrace each and every one of you, dear readers, who come here each day, to learn from me, and to show me the way to what I can learn from you. And I am happy to learn.
You were there for me, my sweet, wise Liz, when I needed a shoulder to cry on. Thank you!
You, Laura, congratulated me when I was successful.
You, dear, wonderful Ilker, made a dream come true.
Lillie, my purity symbol, my white flower, your love is beyond compare!
Jen… you wipe my tears and you don’t even know it.
Dio: you empower me! Share more of your soul, my sweet friend. Your project is wonderful. But I miss YOU!
Thank you… Thank all of you! You make my online existence a blessing. I am because you are. And that’s the top reason to answer to comments: to say thank you.
Whenever you need me, anyone of you, just drop me a comment!

2Well, good reasons you have there and that’s one of the reason why most of the bloggers are doing the same (answering to comments)

4Hi Liz,
I’m glad you like it (my blog that is). About your love: it’s in my heart, it will never go away, no matter what! And I am not giving it back. No way! I give you my own love in return.

6Hi Laura,
Did you notice that my readers are your readers? Your readers are my readers… and so on? I think we are more than friends and we cannot really define this connection. We share common ideals and dreams…

13Hey, I’m leaving a comment here because I cant leave it where I really want to. I would love to leave a comment on THIS site, but the host turned off comments. And everytime she comes and comments on my blog, remember I cant comment on hers. It is really a heart breaker, since, as I said, I would love to comment on it. So hey, maybe you can talk to her and convince her to open up comments. After all, why would anyone blog but not have comments open. Plus I remember that a while back she promised she would open up comments.
Ciao

It’s just that I really don’t have the time to answer everywhere… But OK… I’ll talk to her

15This is such sweet post. Many times we miss responding back to those that’ve commented, but it’s not to say that we don’t read each one and appreciate it. How wonderfully kind of you to reciprocate in such a touching way.
