Long Posts
It’s interesting. I have had a post in my head for some time now. Recently I read something that basically opened the door for this post. I have spent several hours (approximately 11) on the post. I have another hour or two, I suspect, to complete it with ensuring the documentation is perfect as well as the grammar.
But as I researched a point I was making, I re-visited a bunch of old posts and I just lost interest. While this post is quite interesting, it dredges up some old stuff and frankly, it just isn’t worth it to make the point I was making.
When I walked away from the local geocaching community nearly three years ago, I truly left. The trends, the actions, et al. are noticed and I occasionally comment on them, but these things do not affect me any longer for the most part. Another crappy cache? So be it. A snide remark? Turn the other cheek.
I have a book I read aloud to each of my groups daily. Today, the main character commented that he had nothing to say to his uncle at all. They walked all the way to a pond and back saying nothing. Modeling the text-to-shelf reflection, I shared that I often feel that way. I am no good with small talk. That is why geocaching events never thrilled me.
Every now and then there’s an occasion I would welcome being heard on an issue. eCache provides the perfect forum for that. This other post will go to the bin a lot of other posts have gone over the years. Doing so, I suspect, will save a lot of turmoil for others.
