From time to time, I find myself struggling with the question of whether and/or how to continue. After almost seven years of this, I suppose feeling somewhat stale is an inevitable thing. Now, thought, I find myself struggling more than usual. I'm growing tired of politics (there are many out there whose passion for and analysis of American politics far surpasses my own), and one of my readers mentioned that my writing seems to have lost its humor. That I can't argue with that assessment only increases my concern...so, once again I find myself reassessing whether or not what I do here is really worthwhile. I still enjoy the writing, but I don't want to become just another blog best characterized as just so much mental masturbation.
I don't know how much I'll be writing over the next few days or weeks. Maybe a little. Maybe a lot. Whatever I do, I want to take the time to re-evaluate whatever it is I'm trying to accomplish here. I don't want to be just another bombastic left-wing blogger. There's not necessarily anything wrong with that; it's just not a role I care to play. Being your basic bleeding-heart Liberal, I still harbor the dream of wanting to make the world a better place. Does this get me any closer to achieving that dream? I suppose that's the answer I'm trying to find.
Stay tuned....
