Going Dark, Seeking Light

In looking back over this blog, I am struck by the disproportionately high share of negative entries, which doesn't represent what I believe to be my true feelings about my marriage or my religion. It seems that this has begun to serve less and less as a forum for me to work through thoughts, and more and more as a driver of what I'm thinking: "Oh, I've got to hold onto that idea / image / attitude / criticism / cynicism for the blog..." etc. These things have slanted heavily negative because, well, "If it bleeds, it leads," and I fear that the net effect has been that the blog has become a circular meta-driver of sentiment, if that makes sense. (No, I'm not blaming all of my problems on a blog.)

It's not what my family (while I am still clinging to one), my spirit or I need, so I'm shuttering the shop indefinitely.

Adios.
