Is this for me?

Is this for me? Okay, I am contemplating if this is the right forum for me. I don't get the whole face book, twitter and texting thing. So why do I want a blog? A friend at work has two blogs and she inspires me with her writing. I on the other hand am a horrible speller and my grammar is even worse. What can I offer readers? I am a mother of two, an 11 year old girl and 8 year old boy. They are amazing children and I could write about the trials and tribulations of parenting. I could share funny stories of how they perplex and amaze me at the same time. But how would that really make me different than any other site?Maybe I should share a short story to let you know how I came up with the blog name and that will serve as a springboard for comments and we will go from there.

While walking along a beach a man saw someone in the distance leaning down and picking something up, tossing it back into the ocean. As he got closer her noticed the figure was a young boy picking up starfish one by one and throwing them back into the ocean. The man approached the boy, smiled and asked why was he throwing the starfish back into the ocean. To this the boy replied. "The sun is up and the tide going out. If I don't they will die" Upon hearing this the man replied, "But young man, do you realize their are miles and miles of beach and that there are miles and miles of starfish. How can you possibly make a difference?" The young boy listened politely and then bent down... picking up a starfish and throwing it past the breaking waves...He then said "It made a difference for that one."

So you ask "what is the realivence of this story?" My son has behavioral issues. He has since he was about 2 years old, about the time of my divorce from his father. We have gone to counseling and found amazing doctors to obtain appropriate care. He is doing so much better. Now my Jay stories involve laughing and not crying. Along the way, to this realitivly happy place, there have been people that have seen the diamond in the rough. They have appreicated Jay for his beautiful spirit. To me Jay is one of those starfish.....he was an under-dog. He is someone who dosen't fit into the box society so despirately tries to force people into. So I hope to inspire people to find the good in mankind. To find the silver lining in the storm cloud.
