Blog Carnival: I Had to Stop and Think
First of all, let me just offer a big, huge THANK YOU to everyone who's responded to my request for submissions to the October edition of the Blog Carnival Against Child Abuse. The response of e-mails and submissions coming in from www.blogcarnival.com has been amazing! Thanks, guys--you rock!
But, what I had to stop and think about was the timing and the theme of this carnival. I know that, for ritual abuse survivors especially, this is an awful time. I sincerely apologize if I came across as insensitive to this kind of suffering. I'm sorry. I guess I just got in such a hurry trying to slap together a last-minute carnival (after we've missed the last two months) that I didn't stop and think. I still think "overcoming our fears" is an excellent topic to discuss, but let's just call this the October Carnival, okay? Peace, comfort and blessings to all.
