Good Friday

This blog was born on Good Friday two years ago. 

Things here have changed a lot since then.  For one, I write less often now than I used to (once a week, usually on Tuesdays).  For another, hundreds of people actually read this thing now. 

Perhaps there's a connection between these two points.

The tone and content of what gets posted here has changed too: there's no more sports or politics, and some of the running bits I used to do that didn't get read much probably won't return. 

One thing that hasn't changed, though, is the meaning of Good Friday, and how that relates to what I'm going here in this corner of cyberspace.

Here's what I wrote about it last year.

I'll be on the road today, but I hope you all have a restful and contemplative day, and that you'll take a moment to think gratefully of a time that someone in your life made a sacrifice on your behalf. 

I'll see you soon.
