Pausing

If you're new here, you may want to subscribe to my RSS feed. Thanks for visiting!

It’s been two months since I posted here. Truth is, I’ve been unsure what to say about what we are now experiencing. The magnitude of our problems with the economy and the environment takes my breath away. All I know is that I know enough to know that I don’t know.

Some of us are soldiering on, choosing to suspend disbelief. I am among those who are suspending belief. Quite a change from the heady days of January when change seemed not only possible, but also inevitable. Now I’m not so sure. It may all turn out ok. It may not. I only know that I am tired of thinking about things over which I have no control.

And so I am pausing this blog. And I am pausing Research Arts. After 25 years, we both need a break from this analyzing and writing business. I am literally going to smell the roses, walk my dogs, dust off my old non-digital cameras and bellows, paddle in cool waters, and turn off the tv. I need to get away from the abstractions and focus on the real. Because beyond the statistics, this is a beautiful world and life is a blessing.
