ARE YOU DROWNING?

There are some blog authors who are heavily engaged in dealing with serious issues, who, despite the odds, are struggling to make the world a better place.

I know from my own experience that to battle against the powerful vested interests and the indifference and stupidity of the sheeple can be very wearing and disappointing. Worryingly, my good friend The Dining Philosopher has fallen victim just recently and closed his blog down. Others I know of are struggling.

The thought occurred to me that, perhaps, my blog might better serve as a place where weary blog authors can find moments of peace, of support, of praise, of understanding, a forum where guest posts could be made, where some steam could be let off, where self-doubts could be aired and discussed, perhaps lessened.

The symbol of the Ark, even to a nautical atheist like me, is a powerful one. Its connotations suggest rescue, refuge, comradeship and survival during times of difficulty such as the world is now experiencing with worse to come.

THE BLOGGER'S ARK. What do you think? Would you like to come aboard?

P.S. A recent comment from Lil Sparrow prompted this post.
