When you stop being an exact copy, you learn who your true friends are.<br />In the blogging world I am learning by following and that is not a bad thing. So much I would miss if I did not follow.<br />Wishing your friend the best with surgery and as little pain as possible with recovery. There must always be some discomfort with change.<br />Somewhere down the road, when you have done your research and answered your questions, you will make the decision that is proper for you.<br /><br />(I am struggling with a decision on my own right now.)Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-21118532291603403412010-07-14T10:40:21.681-05:002010-07-14T10:40:21.681-05:00One thing I do know, you are a doer.

There is no great magic in being a leader if they are lacking in vision and goodness. Truth is most people are followers, and they have the hardest job of all--picking the right leader to follow.Michellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01805403370463885686noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-81826065777609855352010-07-13T11:24:43.233-05:002010-07-13T11:24:43.233-05:00Oh, Suzanne, I know exactly what you mean.

I, too, am a born follower, but that sometimes leads me to very sweet rewards, just like today. I followed you from the sweet comment you left on my blog back to your home here. And, as you can see, I have become your newest blog "follower". You were the leader today! It's so nice to meet you.<br /><br />Sherry @ A Happy ValentineSherry from Alabamahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06639124488260234803noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-28943498182689944632010-07-13T10:00:14.790-05:002010-07-13T10:00:14.790-05:00To me the most important characteristic is a lovin...To me the most important characteristic is a loving heart.

I see you as so much of a leader. A take charge person who jumps in where she is needed and gets things done. Sometimes I think we don't see the good in ourselves as others see us. My dear sister-in-law says that in life there are directors and back-stage people and we should work where we are most comfortable. I have known "directors" who come up with ideas and then wait for others to implement them. Then there are the "back-stage" people who just jump in and do. You are so creative and so talented in so many areas....who cares where the ideas come from....in the end, it is YOU who creates the finished product. I would much rather be the one who creates than the one who has the oritinal idea. I will be praying for your friend.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-28671393035988306632010-07-13T07:42:00.700-05:002010-07-13T07:42:00.700-05:00Praying for your friend now.

However, I do think you lead in some ways. I can see that through your blog. I don't lead in all ways in my life either. For example, I can lead a classroom no problem... but my husband leads my household. I am very much a leader with one of my friends, but with many of my friends I am also a follower. I don't know. I guess I just switch roles depending on the place/time/other people.<br />~MaggieA MilShelb Momhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13770728487605353254noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7924158834708722465.post-38405914726407723622010-07-12T21:51:39.209-05:002010-07-12T21:51:39.209-05:00IF you had been a leader who would your friends ha...IF you had been a leader who would your friends have been?
