Thin~Spaces has been rather quiet for some time now. I'm sure that most people who read my earlier posts frequently have long since changed that behavior. I'm glad for that.
So often when we Blog we add to the echo chamber of people with similar ideas and view of the world or " how things are." There is nothing wrong with that in itself if we were static beings and did not continue to grow and change.
Remember, what we write on our Blogs lives forever.
The other day while doing a Google search on an "emergent church" topic i found a rather frustrated/hurt sounding Rant that i written several years ago. Who was that guy? I remember penning the words but the underlying emotions have long since changed as have some of my views.
(Many of my views have deepened while other are rejected)
What would i want to leave behind for some future web historian to uncover as part of her Ph. D Thesis on religion in the early 21st century.?. Our words will live that long in the meta-conversation we all play with called the web.
Do i have anything of lasting worth to contribute or will i be just another one of those lost voices in the echo chamber of this technology?
Thin~Spaces .... No Promises.
Life...growth...the journey of transformation. A legacy of true emergence can not be overlooked, nor it's value underestimated.
