I have to confess that I am painfully challenged when it
comes to anything electronic or that which exceeds the bounds of elementary
computer mastery. That particular
handicap of mine was driven home, recently, in spades
I began writing this blog in 2007 and I subscribed to
Sitemeter in order to monitor activity on my blog, augmented by Blogspot for
posting my blogs. I felt gifted that I
was even able to manage all that.
However, I recently discovered that there is a provision for “comments”
which I had never seen before! I opened
it and, voila, there was a treasure trove of comments that I had
never looked at from the time I started writing. It was like Christmas multiplied many times
over, and I enjoyed every word that greeted my eyes. I was overcome by the kind and generous
assessment of so many of you with what I had committed to paper. It was, to say the least, a humbling
experience.
Now, mind you, of the all the human frailties that any of us
can commit, I regard taking anyone for granted to be one of the worst. I feel ashamed that I have allowed this to
miss my attention for so long, and I sincerely apologize to all of you who have
been victim to my ignorance. But, take
some solace in knowing it was not deliberate.
I write my blog, not for any recognition or praise that
might follow. Rather it is an expression
from the heart and mind, such as they are.
Without all of you who have been so generous with your time in reading and
reflecting on those words, my efforts would have been for naught.
Starting off on a better foot, I sincerely wish each and
every one of you a joyous and happy holiday season, and may the coming year be
filled with renewed hope and promise for all who share a genuine concern for
their fellow man and preservation of the fragile planet we all share.
All the best.
