Hi Kyla –

Was just browsing around on your informative sidebar and loved this post! I feel the exact same way much of the time and I love your suggestions. Also I love your bangs. I wish I could get up the nerve to cut some! Keep up the good work sister.

I totally feel like I’m the outside looking in. It seems that many other bloggers are blogger friends in real life. But i dont really have any?

Kyla, this was great! I totally completely 100% agree. Feeling involved means just that, you have to make the effort to be involved! There are times I feel “left out” per se, but I always know it is only when I haven’t been pulling my weight, which is just like it is in any relationship! I could feel my marriage is going to crumble, but it’s only on the days I haven’t taken the effort to lean over and give Cale that little kiss he deserves. We just need to be giving other bloggers their “daily kiss” if you will.

I love what Rachel added: You choose how involved you want to be, people will always be happy you’re there. afuckingmen.

i know what it feels. the sense of belonging is something many of us in search for. i hope there will be an active 20sb group for Filipino bloggers like me. ‘coz it seems i’m the only one active.

btw, congrats for being the featured blogger in 20sb! you deserve it. you’ve got a great blog here!

And this is why you were the featured blogger :)

Honestly Kyla, if I were any more close to Canada, I’d hug your adorable self, because you’re too amazing. HONESTLY.

And well, I’m also trying to email other bloggers, comment in all the posts possible, trying to see if there are some bloggers in Strasbourg, etc.

The blogging community won’t come to you by osmosis. YOU have to look for it, and find the people you’re comfortable with. :)

What a beautiful post! I love it! I love how you related it to the movie. I can totally relate to that. I was feeling very left out of everything and I had a realization that my blog and the people that read it was really where I belonged, in a sense. I love being a part of the online blogging community. It makes me happy.

I just found your blog today, by the way. :)
