Letting Go

I often wondered what I would write in my final Victoria Advocate blog, because I knew there would come the time for goodbyes. Would I be eloquent? Would I be angry? Would I be sad?

And, in the end, there is nothing left in me for this website. That's all there is. Nothingness. If there are any of you out there that are wondering why I am leaving, then you haven't been paying attention to the changes afoot at the VicAd. They have finally chosen a path which I cannot abide. I would be remiss if I didn't thank all my loyal readers and commenters over the years. You know who you are. Even if my words infuriated you, enlightened you, aggravated you, tickled you - you know who you are. So thank you.

And for the VicAd, this is all I have left. If there's one thing I've learned over the years, it's knowing when to let the music do the talking. So, here is my final missive. Goodbye.

Thank you, Anonymous, whoever you are!

Just want to make clear I will still be blogging on this Google blog, but no longer on the VicAd.

Anonymous, please feel free to follow me here. I would be honored.

You cannot write without being eloquent. You are even eloquent when you are pissed. That is the gift of a peaceful soul. I'll address the main subject in good time. Suffice to say, that there are a number of us "old guard" hangers on, who just either got kicked off the bus, or jumped off when it's destination became either clear as they claim, or muddled as we see it. Either way, as a wise man once said, "All Things Must Pass". Nice part is the new relationships and friendships born of that first incarnation of Advocate bloggers and friends. We will move on......together.

Indeed, my friend, we shall.

Thank you, and the others in the "inner circle", so much for representing the best of what the VicAd once had to offer. It's satisfying to know that good did come from that publication, once upon a time.
