Hello Again, Hello.

Well it's been a very long time. Facebook and twitter became the new face of me. Reflections suddenly became much shorter as bitesize chunks became the way of recording my life. I used computers less and a blackberry more which didn't let me post here. An iPod later, so greatful for so much more than that to my wonderful wife I ponder a return to blogging. All the people closest to me blog. If its significant for them and journaling has been for many down the ages, then I guess it's time to make a return. Have I grown up and moved on in these last few years? I hope so. Will the blog change. That will be interesting to see. Blog, f/b, twitter, they all show an edited, positive me. But then all writers work to an agenda and with a particular perspective in mind. Has mine changed? Do I want to be more open, honest and vulnerable here? Probably not. Maybe that needs more private space. But hopefully I will be more thoughtful and reflective. Time will tell. But in the meantime, thanks to those special people and their blogs, their shared lives that have made me think more about life outside 140 characters.
