I visited the old blog which has been stagnant for far too long and still couldn't bring myself to delete it. First I thought it was the numerous photos of my beloved cat who died in 2008. Then I believed it was because the blog documented the new cat's arrival.
In the end it's about the blog being a chronological history of my life for the last four years - that's hard to simply erase. Truly it is.
Of course, continuing to allow its stagnation isn't a solution and I really would prefer to take it offline and yet have it intact - an impossibility, right? How would the HTML remain intact as well as the numerous photos / videos?
The main reason I allowed it to go dormant is because two people followed the blog and I didn't want them to continue with me through new experiences. Foolish? Maybe but nonetheless, I didn't want them to share my life stream and so I simply ceased posting.
For now I'll allow the old blog to sit and gather dust. I need to figure out what, if anything, I can do to preserve it intact. If I can't find a solution then it seems the sole option is to delete it which would be challenging for me. However as with everything else, time heals and changes ones perspective and someday I'll simply be able to be done with it and release it.
