Blog or Article?
Blogs often focus on personal opinion, experiences, views, anecdotes or advice. Blogs tend to have a relaxed and conversational feel, such as in storytelling and are generally 300-500 words.
Articles aim to deliver well-researched, informative content with solid evidence to back up the points made. Articles are usually more formal, organized and frequently range 500-1000 words.
Ok, I'll admit it even though I am a guy. My emotions have been stirred seeing and reconnecting with people on this site. I am not sure exactly why and I can not really explain it and do not want to try. There have been a few tears of joy and a few outloud laughs. 
I don't claim to be as religious or bible believeing as I was in my youth. I am not even a church goer at this time. But it appears that whatever "bond" we had in our brief years in The Way Corps affected us more deeply than we may have realized, even some 30 years later, perhaps even for the rest of our lives. I do not think this is a bad thing. But I do believe it would be difficult to set it (our relationships and experiences in The Way Corps) aside and forget about it.
As for me, I just want to enjoy these moments (and emotions) while they last and celebrate the lives of some of the greatest people I have ever met.

Don't give me too much adulation. It will go to my head and I will begin believeing it. Not good.

Yeah, we all know the initial thrill wears off after a while, but it is still nice for a person to know they are welcome in the midst of some friends they can easily interact with at any given time, even if it is a time when they feel a little lonely or if they just want a few laughs or a walk down memory lane.
Happy New Year to all!
And John, I agree completely. The love between us all lives in what I call "the land of no words". I too have cried tears of joy over all these heart-pings I've been having, the precious notes people have been sending & all the memories that have been stirred. It seems the same people are on here as are on the magic mirror ongoing discussion (yay 9th corps!!!), where we've been touching on all this live reunion talk. I've volunteered to help, how about you, Vicki? And John, let's try & put our heads together on this again. You guys can both read the last few entries on the mirror page & add your ideas (my brain is already "imagineering" like crazy...) As wonderful as these cyber-communications can be, there's nothing like a big hug!
I love what you said. Woh - did a guy just say "emotion"? It's a great thing to have loved with all our hearts, and to have understood at that time that this was what we were doing. It was for real, and it was for all of the marbles. Even though many of us walk on different paths nowadays, these relationships are comfortable shoes that we broke in when we were first learning to walk; in some ways, they will always fit our feet the best. We moved on to other lives, but the people stay part of us. I love that. I'm not going to try to figure it out too much; I'm just loving getting back in touch with folks I'd lost. Thanks, thanks, thanks, Did somebody say "reunion?" Oh, yeah. I just read you say it, in some other post. BTW, I haven't listened to your page music for a couple of weeks; it's different, but great! Have you heard the new Eagles song, "Do Something" ? Love to Hope. Vickie
I look forward to the days ahead to see who all we get to connect with again.
