Paula’s Playground

by Bud Weiser

How we deal with death tells as much about us as how we deal with life. We were very moved by Giv­ing Sor­row Words pub­lished June 10, 2007, by the author of a blog that is bet­ter known for humor and wit than seri­ous writing.

Paula of Paula’s Play­ground is a ter­rific writer who seems to really care about her read­ers. To weave a tale of grief and speak hon­estly with­out unnec­es­sar­ily “over doing it” is a skill indeed. That’s why we chose this heart­felt and sad post as the Post of the Day.

Check out Paul’s entire blog. We know you will enjoy it and it will be time well spent!

I’m honored, humbled, surprised and speechless at receiving this recognition. I truly am. This means a lot to me.

I applaud your selection of not just this post, which was well written and very moving, but of Polli’s blog overall.

Polliwog’s Pond is one of my very favorite places to go and Polli has become one of my most treasured blogging friends. She is an amazing woman.

Thank you for recognizing her!
