On Wittgenstein, Life’s Chaotic Turns and Blogging

Wittgenstein once wrote, “What we cannot speak about we must pass over in silence.”

While he was concerned with the limits of our language as it relates to philosophical insights about ethics and aesthetics, I simply mention Wittgenstein here to point out a much more prosaic fact.  Life has been overwhelmingly busy and complex lately.  Not being able to give much thought and prayer to issues related to this blog, I have chosen to by and large limit myself to silence which has been occasionally interrupted by random jocular posts.

As the fog lifts, I hope to return to more intentional blogging, but for now..as the French would say, “C’est la vie.”  One must know when to embrace reality and live within its limits.
