Hang in there

jim.mcfarland said May 7, 2007, 6:20 AM:

 

I have noticed a few folks joining, and then leaving a few days later.  I just wanted to assure the folks still around that this will not become an abandoned, or dead pod.  I have just had a very busy month since creating the pod.  I will be giving more attention to it.

I started a new job at the beginning of the month, and my life is just now starting to return to a normal routine.  Also, as I mentioned in a nother thread, I have been leading a discussion group I am a member of at church, and that has taken much of my free time.  That is wrapping up this week, and so I will soon have more time to help this group grow and stay active.

Thanks,
Jim

Hi, Summer Sun - STILL HERE!
Just not sure what to start a discussion with. I am by nature a 'listener' or, in this case, 'reader'!   However, I have just had a thought, “What I see as spiritual, do others see the same thing?” Maybe I should ask  ” Is there a universal understanding of what spirituality is?” Any answers?

And perhaps summer is too alluring to get outside and do stuff.  When the long, dark, colder days come, sitting in front of a warm computer monitor may be the activity of choice.

Hi Jim,

Deborah
Not sure what I am, I am my beliefs, currently those include being raised Episcopalian, having seriously Church of Christ grandparents who taught me conviction in beliefs, 30 yr foundation in metaphysics as taught by Science of Mind, recent interest in Taoism, Pantheism, Paganism of a Wicca tone and Buddahism - all with a sprinkling of open-mindedness towards divining.

Expecting to get into some books gathering dust in my library that might fit in here.

I haven't forgotten about this pod.  It is just that as things started to ease up on my work, I found other things to fill my time.  I joined the Web Team at my UU congregation and have spend lots of my free time learning PHP and working on additions and improvements to that site.  And things have continued to change at work.  Same company, but our team's process and my role have changed and I have had to do a lot of reading of technical books in my free time.  So, my reading time for other stuff and my online time in communities like Zaadz have been low.

But, I'll try to check in here more often and get some discussion going.  I also want to grow the membership, but am not quite sure how, at this point.

Jim
