Every year on my birthday, I re-evaluate what I’m doing and whether that’s working or not. It’s the only notice I give my birthday, because it seems completely irrelevant, except in this one area. This blog will remain, though probably more sporadically than before, because I was forced to recognize that writing these posts and relying on the support of the many readers was not having the effect I wanted to have. In a lot of ways, I consider myself a failure, because I’ve been working diligently on opening minds and providing those who are already awake something to share with friends and family, to help explain their points of view on certain issues, but here we are, I’ve had no effect, it seems. Okay, I’m not a stranger to failure, it doesn’t hurt like the first few, before I realized that hard work and diligence are not a failproof recipe for success. I would suggest that it’s very difficult to succeed without those ingredients, but even with them, one can fail. But far from distancing myself from the eternal struggle for freedom, I’ve come to the conclusion that there are better ways.

Happy Birthday. Just so you know, your blog is one that I frequent often with others. And I've shown many things on this blog, and others, to my sons and friends. Minds are being opened my friend. And yes, you have had a part in it. Take care and enjoy the new year.
