Up until this point, I have been fairly good at keeping up with the grind demanded by this daily blog. I have been able to post (with one or two exceptions) every single day since early November. It has been wonderful for me to share with you, and I have enjoyed the challenge of trying to have something to scribble down, even when ideas are difficult to come by.
Well, it seems that the time to meet that challenge has passed. The desire to keep a daily blog has not been vanquished, no. In fact, I wish I could keep up as I have, but unfortunately it's time for me to face the truth of my position: I have neither the intellectual energy nor the time to continue as I have. If I were somehow a perpetual well of fascinating ideas and catchy witticisms and Johnny-on-the-spot nonsense (which border on outright lies), it might be different; however, I am not exactly as I may appear at times. The well runs dry (as I'm sure we all have experienced), and it requires some time to replenish a barren reservoir, especially a mental one.
Consequently, I will be changing the schedule of my posts from daily to semi-weekly: I shall have a post on Mondays, and one on Thursdays, thus providing me with adequate time, I hope, to somehow wring out some good, solid ideas to share with my readership from my sponge of a brain which is currently yearning for a full bucket.
I appreciate, as always, the continued patronage of my readers, and I hope you will continue to visit my blog in the future. The end is not near, no matter how this post may sound; we are simply entering a new phase our relationship.
Love to you all, and keep the faith, my friends, "for my purpose holds to sail beyond the sunset....Though much is taken, much abides" (from Alfred Lord Tennyson's "Ulysses").
