"Why do you blog?"

Good-Bye My Fancy

GOOD-BYE my fancy - (I had a word to say,
But 'tis not quite the time - The best of any man's word or say,
Is when its proper place arrives - and for its meaning,
I keep mine till the last.)

Behind a Good-bye there lurks much of the salutation of another
beginning - to me, Development Continuity, Immortality,
Transformation, are the chiefest life-meanings of Nature and
Humanity, and are the sine qua non of all facts, and each fact.
Why do folks dwell so fondly on the last words, advice,
appearance, of the departing? Those last words are not samples of
the best, which involve vitality at its full, and balance, and
perfect control and scope. But they are valuable beyond measure to
confirm and endorse the varied train, facts, theories and faith of
the whole preceding life.

Walt Whitman
"...Those last words are not samples of
the best..." it is the details of each day and thoughts shared when we can that are the most important "...valuable beyond measure..."
Thus we can blog and share the most valuable parts of our lives!!
