When I first used the computer for internet stuff, I thought a post was just a stick in the ground to hold things up. Like a fence, a birdhouse or scare crow.
Then along came the internet and it became more than that and the same as that.
When you post something on a blog or face book page you are wanting to hold something up for all to see or to keep something in one place. On the internet nothing stays in place, but you do put it in one spot, whether your blog, page or website.
Sometimes things get out there you wish hadn't. Maybe a picture of you when you all you wanted for Christmas was your two front teef.
Sometimes you post something multiple places because you want the world to know.
Birth of a child, marriage, or at this Easter time, the fact that Jesus hung on a cross for your sins. All of them. Past, present and future.
Sometimes you post out of gratefulness. An illness is past, a tough trial has ended or perhaps someone has loved you a great deal.
I will end this by saying that with this post I want you to know that I am grateful for the love God showed for me by having his son die on the cross and rise again for my sins and my joy.
Your last comment is about a very important post. This is so well written, Stella. I hope you don't mind that I am copying and pasting your links into the P thread. I don't want any of the other A-Z writers to miss it.
