It’s been quite a while since I needed to do any work on a blog; probably 3 or 4 years or maybe longer. So, what with actually working for a living (3 days a week) and managing life in general I’m struggling to find the time. Plus, to be honest also with the finer details of WordPress etc. What I do know is, I want to change the look and feel. I don’t want to completely remove references to my former blog or to my life as MPB. But I do want a new focus.
So, the blog will need to change. There will be photos, but fewer of them will feature naked bodies. This isn’t because we don’t photograph each other any more. We do, though less frequently. But because the world is changing and so are we. Nudity seems to be less acceptable, apparently looking at the naked bodies of a couple of people in their 60’s is harmful. Anyway I’m not sure it’s what I want to do any more. I have different things to say, do and show you.
I have things to say about life in the mid 2020s. About how we navigate our way through the world and specifically how to exist and concentrate on what’s important even if the world crashes and burns around us. I have long believed that we can only fight the battles that we have power and or influence over and as I get older this feels more of an imperative. However that doesn’t stop me wanting to talk about the things that do concern me.
For now I’ll write as and when I have something to say and at the same time gradually change the blog to reflect me and our relationship in 2025. Soon I need to speak about how aging is affecting us, I’ll probably do that in my next post.
