I am always moved and grateful to receive nominations for blogging awards. Unfortunately, I have very limited time to devote to blogging, so I am unable to carry out the duties that accompany most rewards.
So good to see your post. I was thinking about you last week. Hope you and your wife are well and vaccinated.
Hi Pat, Thank you for reminding me hat my presence maters!
I have been moping given the state of the world. Ridiculous really but I was tired of challenging the status quo endlessly. Am trying to return with more bandwidth.
I hadn’t thought of it like that but I think I am in a similar spot. I have withdrawn and then feel guilt that… well that’s too long of a list and you already know about it all. My mind also feels dulled so it is harder to write anything of substance. I assume that it is mental fatigue from the past 5 years, but also fear that aging is sapping me of all the strengths I built over the years.
And then there are the unceasing threats to all we love……
Yes – it is too much to think about.
You are of course right.
Good to see you Michael, I hope you’re well.
Thank you, Andrea. We are well, if a tad overworking. Somehow my blog gets much less attention than it deserves, as do the blogs I follow. Maybe It is just COVID fatigue?
I think the smaller our world becomes the less we have to write about – that’s what I’ve found.
Andrea, I believe you are correct. Certainly our worlds shrank during the past 18 months.
