My Old Blog is Gone

I was not emotionally prepared for this.  There was a post I wrote years ago.  And I’ve thought about it periodically since then.  It was one of those moments that, forgive me for my lack of humility, I had an insight much greater than myself and I dared to commit it to virtual space.  Anyway, from time to time I’ve gone back to that particular post and read it.  Until today…when I found that the blog site I once used is completely gone.  And all of my blog archives are gone with it. This is clearly a universe thing.

This is one of those cases of, “you don’t think about it until it’s gone.”  And now I can’t think of anything but that.  So many years of insights.  Not all good ones.  Not by far.  But some moments of truth there.  Moments captured of the hardest years of my life thus far.  And the history is gone.  And maybe that’s exactly the way it should be.  Those years are important and ones to remember…but they can be remembered without a word for word re-enactment. I guess.

In the end, it would’ve been nice to be informed that every thought I committed to digital reality up until the start of this brilliant space would be completely wiped from existence.  But then, it’s good to be able to let them go.  That was then.

And today is now.

And this is the post I was looking for:
