50 hours before i can permanently delete my account
I do not have another active account here, and if at a later time i deeply desire to return i'd have to email SW to get back. If i do that i will be prepared to convert you all to being wild rabid Puritan fanatics. ---- just kidding there.
My last word here therefore is to confirm my decision.
For the last few weeks i've only done my own thing here, and granted i could still do that, but it has to stop because it feels for me that i've done it too much, it feels like if i'm to be here i should be a sociable being.
I appreciate all who've gestured and commented on my posts, and i will always have fond little memories of when i mingled with the rest of you, light moments.
In reading some Thomas Goodwin there was a typo "Lord Jeans" it said, so i made a note -- "this is from the tribe of Levi, right?" i crack myself up, and if anyone here can break out in a grin, it'll be my last little gift.
I love the Puritans, how removed they are from all modern sensibilities, especially modern evangelicalism.
I will regret posting this, i was going to try to disappear without calling attention to it, for by doing this i give myself the impression that i have to be saying stuff like i always have done here, but i'm feeling pretty confident that without a platform to continue having a voice i can be able to hear perhaps a still small voice inside that i've been deaf to for far too long.
I wish you all well, that no matter how bad world events can get, that the spark of goodness and decency can still be brought to the fore in people's lives and experiences of living amidst others. By dropping out, i place a judgment upon myself, that i've been found wanting in the whole being amidst others thing. And to the company of those who have left behind the printed word i banish myself, as unto a lush island fully equipped with what is most needed.
