I did not have any expectations of what this blog would do, be, accomplish. I did not even start it. I just acquiesced to maintaining and contributing. It had a purpose, I think, that it did not in anyway accomplish.

Along the way it picked up alternative meaning, to me. I took full advantage of it’s usefulness.

I commented on this before, yet let if slide since I thought I could get around the negative impact. I was dead wrong.

The open, honest, detail of me – to whoever choose to take the time to peruse it – was critically stupid on so many levels I am sure I have not yet discovered them all.

Removing the blog – which I will as soon as I figure out how to save the content – will not be of too much use. What’s “out there” is out there with my name on it. The only people reading it are the ones who google you name when they get your job application.

It’s curious – at one time two or three people a day would read this. At one time it was three or four dozen. Back to two or three. Two or three that I would prefer not.

This in not longer helpful to or for me. Since it was about me to begin with, it seems just fine to end it. I gots nothing else to say.

It will not reach the milestone I had begun to look at each day. It will not take up anymore time. It will not sit idle and wait for replies or comments. It will free up whatever space it has taken up.

    I’m sorry to see your blog go. This was a nice way to help me get to know you a little bit.

    The purpose of a blog is to give others a view into your thoughts, ideas, passions. It is akin to writing in your diary, then leaving the diary out for your younger sister to read. Foolish? Yes. Your deepest, most private thoughts should be shared only with the few people you can truly trust. For the rest of us, share your light-hearted thoughts on the animals of Africa, your plans for social reform or the mechanics of massage therapy. Do not share in a public medium that which you do not want everyone to know. I would have liked to have read about Africa. Good luck in the future.
