Welcome back. You belong here.

I’ll be doing a blog fast for the next 3 days: Friday-Sunday. I’ll start up again next Monday. It’ll be good for me, less writing and thinking out loud here and more processing, praying.

I got the idea from TallSkinnyKiwi: The Spirituality of Not Blogging. Here’s what he had to say:

“At my seminar, I also talked about the spirituality of not blogging which include disciplines such as refusing to jump into the internet before prayerful mediation, and the ‘BLOG FAST’ in which we take 3 days off to nail our blog to the cross and purge our addition to readership, hits and traffic. But then you cant experience the spiritual joys of not blogging unless you blog in the first place.”

Into the future,

UPDATE: The fast has gone on longer than 3 days, which I’ve actually needed. It’s been very good for me, a great discipline. I can say I have “nailed my blog to the cross and purge my addiction to readership, hits and traffics.” I have not been able to keep up with all of you my friends, I have missed you, but that too has been part of my fast and it’s been good. So now, I am done with my blog fast. Thank you for your friendship.
