New Year, New Start
After a month or more of abstaining from blogging I am renewing my efforts as we enter a new calendar year.
Why have I not been posting, you ask?
Not for lack of things to say, certainly. But I have felt the need to censor myself and purge this blog from the political rants and raves that characterized it much of the time over this past year. In coming days I plan to continue to share perspectives and thoughts about many topics, but I hope to do so with less rancor and (hopefully) with greater wisdom.
To begin this new 2010 edition of Blog 222 I want to quote a poem by Wendell Barry. It comes from a volume of his poems that I received from my daughter Kate as a Christmas gift (thanks Kate!). It is entitled "A Warning to my Readers." I think it applies here.
