The Write Time

I'm in the middle of a computer rebuild...which is to say Amy is rebuilding my computer. The computer has been sort of limping along for a month or two with various hiccups, multiple Microsoft personality disorder and we knew it was time...for a new hard drive....a fresh start.

I haven't had time to write much lately...I considered for a while if it was time to simply pull the plug on the blog, but I don't think I'm there yet. I'm going to let it limp along for a while yet.
Maybe I'll get a fresh start too.

One reason I haven't written too much is that my life revolves so much around the Gomez family these days and I don't want to invade their privacy...I haven't decided on where the dividing line is yet between their lives and my thoughts.

I've found keeping my mouth shut is a wise approach when put in that situation.

I could write today about a little miracle of hope which has unfortunately become a major source of sorrow, but there are boundaries and the sorrow has not been fully shared, so that story will have to wait.

I suppose I'll know when it's the right time.

One vote for you to not stop writing, even if it's intermittently...

I would be so disappointed if you pulled the plug on your blog. Yours was one of the first blogs I stumbled across when I learned what a blog was. Now I have had my own for nearly a year.(Yay!)

There seems to be an underlying emotional and physical weariness to your posts since you have had the Gomez's living under your roof. I am sitting here tonight and contemplating just what sacrifice means and how we enter into kinship with Christ in his suffering and what a price we do pay. So often we don't let others see that there is a price to pay, we want to smooth it over and make ourselves look prettier in the process. I appreciate the positive tone to your posts since their arrival but also the reality of what a hard road obedience and love can be. God bless you.

Michael,

I'm sorry that you seem to be hurting. You have a lot of readers in the blogosphere who care about you and your families.

I am praying for you all.

peace,

Michael - I so understand not being able to write about certain things and people in our lives, and I respect that. I do miss your posts - but I would be far sadder if you pulled the plug! Even occasional posts are better than none.
