The End Of This Blog

After numerous criticisms from my family about this blog, it looks like I am ending all new posts.

Greg, you are wrong here, Greg, you are wrong there.
Greg, I don’t understand what you wrote here.
Greg, you disappoint me, etc., etc., etc.

It does me no good to try to justify and/or explain who I am to those that do not have an open mind, especially my family members. I am who I am, take it or leave it. My point of view on life is 180 degrees from the norm. This makes me cold, or evil, or mean in many people’s eyes that don’t get it. I understand my family thinks they are losing me, just like when I was in the hospital with a brain tumor many years ago. Well, I lived then, and I will live on now. But I will not subject myself to this negativity and passive aggressive behavior. It does not serve me, it pains me and sucks me down.

Originally I started this blog to vent or to enlighten myself. And it was awesome how many others enjoy my posts and the dialogs we had. But my family doesn’t get me, and they are prowling this blog looking for the kill. Maybe if they type enough contradictory things I will forget who I am and become part of the herd again? And in a recent email to my wife from a family member, she was told that she was crazy or mentally ill. These are attacks on me, attacks on my wife who is my family. I will not stand for this crap. I suppose I should have made this blog anonymous and I wouldn’t have had this problem. But that seemed like hiding. I don’t expect an unenlightened person to agree with anything on this blog because it contradicts what we are told by society. I appreciate what my family is trying to do, in their eyes they are saving me or fixing me or whatever. But it is time for that to stop.

Thank you to all who contributed on this blog. I really enjoyed the times we had.
