I have decided to call it quits with blogging online. I haven’t had much to say in quite sometime, so this is where the line will be drawn. If anyone knows how I can save my entries to a hard copy, I would appreciate it if you would let me know.
My wife bought me a journal a few years back and I actually wrote some thoughts down in it! I would like to pick that up again for a few reasons. The main reason is the death of my mamaw.
After her death, I, and other family members, went through alot of her things. Among her keepsakes are a few letters from my papaw while he was in the service, one from POW camp! This made me think that I wanted to put thought to paper and one day my kids and grandkids can go through my things and find a handwritten treasure like we found. My handwritten thoughts being read one day after I am gone by my boys and there kids really appeals to me. A sort of eternal life.
Unfortunately for this blog (and it’s readers if there are any left), these thoughts will be private thoughts meant for my family’s eyes only and will no longer be thoughts broadcast on the web for all to see and praise or scrutinize. My voice will be much quiter by the world’s standards, but aren’t those things hardest to find more precious?
Good night and good luck.
