It seemed like such a good idea at the time. I suppose it has brought some blessings, but it’s not the thing itself. That other blog I maintain no longer serves a genuine purpose (update: it’s permanently gone). On top of that, it has become a burden of care that is increasingly hard to justify. What you may not know is that it has just about filled up the space I have on that server and it’s not even that old. Sure, the guy I’m leasing from isn’t going to worry too much about the space usage, but I sense there’s something afoot without being able to see it directly. He has less time to give it, too, as he pursues his own divine calling.
I still have the full archive of posts, so nothing will be lost. That’s how I do things; virtually all of my blog posts are composed offline and then copied over. I keep the original somewhere in my files. I’ve lost some of that on this blog due to hardware failures in the past, but I’ve changed my habits since then and keep backups, and that was before I started that other blog.
At any rate, I’m going to give it a rest. You should probably read this as God preparing us all for more changes.
Update: That blog is now closed. All the content has been merged with this blog.
Is the rest a temporary thing?
Dunno yet. Depends on what the owner of the server decides to do.
