Well, of course it's about my life and stuff I think about. Just like a quadzillionbazillion other bloggers. I'm obsessed with God. I love beauty, enjoy absurdity, dance with despair, seek silence, and think everyone is goofy. Here's my world and what I think of it....

HAHAHAHAHAHAHAAAAAAA!
ah, the sad truth of it, eh? (<- deliberately inserted canadiana :)
wv: sermo
Funny and true. These graphs are really getting to the heart of the matter.
Hmmm... I think blogs might represent false expectations. But I am so thankful for podcasts and books. And at the risk of pumping you up, your podcasts--especially Our Life in Christ--have been spiritually edifying for me. I thank God for podcasts. They are responsible for so much of my growth as an Orthodox Christian. Now I fully acknowledge that the more I learn, the less I realize I know, but I love podcasts and books!
So True!!!! Funny...but the truth still hurts, too!
Oh my, can I relate! I've learned the hard way that one must be very careful about idealizing things. Far too many times I've been disappointed at the end of a service when I discover that no one's heard of all the famous Orthodox bloggers that occupy my time.
I pitied them that they weren't in on all the exciting things that I was discovering. Now I understand that they probably just thought I was insane.
Jim, Yeah, this goes a lot of ways. Our "cradle" priest years ago, from all the "publicity" surrounding the EOC, thought Fr. Peter Gillquist was a household word like "Billy Graham". He couldn't beleive it when we tried to explain he was only a "celebrity" within a very small slice of protestantism. In the "Orthosphere" podcasters, bloggers etc. are a small slice of a smaller slice of Orthodoxy. We all travel in small ponds that we believe are the ocean. :)

a delightful series, S-P!
