Since the beginning of the humble blog, I’ve strived to write authentically. Because of her right to privacy, that’s gotten more and more difficult as my wife suffers from a debilitating illness.
I am trying to care for her and am completely overwhelmed. But I don’t feel I can write about it. Maybe at some point in the future. Probably at some point in the future.
For now, in addition to caring for my wife, I’m planning to teach beginning in September. I don’t think I can do right by my wife, my students, and you.
Thank you for reading me and especially to those who took the time to comment from time to time.
Is this the end? I don’t know, time will tell. I’m trying to not plan the future as much, and instead, to live in the present.
Peace out.

Perfectly understandable. I’m amazed you’ve taken it this far. No shame to bow out. It’s been great to reconnect with a Bruin history major this long.
Take care and live life in the immediate and the ever. She needs you, and you need yourself.
Peace, and no need to reply. Memory is what keeps all of us going.
A wise decision, though I was looking forward to hearing about a new crop of students. You will know when the time is right to return. Until then, may you have all the strength, energy, and grace you need to focus on what matters most.
Hang in there! Remember the ‘boons are always there for you!
