A new year.
A new beginning.
New thoughts. New days.
Changes. More changes.
Changes upon changes.
The changes from a year. The things that haven't changed. The things that will change in the future.
A year ago I was a prolific public blogger on Y!360. Now that blog is all but closed and awaiting whatever the fates and follies that Yahoo chooses. I have tried repreatedly to safe the entries and comments but I want to save them intact not just bits and pieces. I find I much prefer to leave it as the ghost of christmas past rather than save a skeleton.
Today. I have a few of the friends on Multiply. I find that while different, it is still the best alternative to Y!360. Note I don't say substitute because in truth it isn't: in ways it's much preferred but in others it doesn't have the magic that 360 had. Perhaps that will come with time.
I will keep this blogger because sometimes I wish to blog things that are just for me. If they're read and commented upon so be it but since this is less public that is doubtful. Often it's just a place to expound on the thoughts that roam my brain free range and without fences.
Often it's a place to make sense out of the senselessness that my life can be at times.
Sometimes --- more frequently lately --- it's a place to chart the changes that time makes.
May I look back upon this in a year with a fond smile.
May this blog celebrate the spring as well as the winter.
