blogging unplugged
I’ve been struggling with this pull between my physical world and my blogging world for some time now. As a final attempt at exploring this struggle, I’ve done a great push this past week with blogging, and although I love the connectedness to others, the collaborative learning process, it takes me away from connecting with those right in front of me, and no matter what I give up in learning from my online community, connecting with those around me is what’s important. So, I’ll be lurking online occasionally, reflecting in writing a bit and even commenting and questioning others at times. I feel fortunate that so much of my work is collaborating with others, reflecting together, questioning together and pushing each other’s learning and thinking. My immediate physical world has many of the great advantages that the blog world has to offer. So, that’s where you’ll find me these days. Come visit!

I understand what you are saying, Susan. I’m amazed by the amount of time (enjoyable) I can spend reading the blogs of others. I learn so much! However, I’m not a good “poster” on my own blog — something about throwing my thoughts “out there” is counterintuitive to my own desire for privacy. I applaud your recent efforts. I’ve been reading! ~T
Thanks, T. It was a hard decision. When I can integrate a blog to support and expand some specific piece of work,I’ll be back.
