When I started this blog, I was tricked by my own ambitions. I had no idea how hard it would be to post consistently – much less daily. I was pretty good for a couple of weeks, but then it got harder and harder. Over that time of blog blockage, I had continued with my Raven’s Mud Project (see postings here or the links on Trickster's Way in the left column) which seeks to recycle, refurbish, and distribute old computers with Linux and open source software installed. I have a friend and compatriot who has a computer consulting business who has aided, encouraged, and joined with me in this project. Always stretching my capacities, Dale Moore has helped me make this project a livable and enjoyable activity for a retired English teacher.
Quite nicely, all of this lead me back to my Blog, which has morphed from Trickster Comes for a Visit to some sharing with the Raven’s Mud project. This widens the blog to reflect my interests even more – trickster, recycling, open source computing, open source spirituality – trickster, recycling, open source computing, open source spirituality, and the others frailties to which I am heir.
So if the trickster reflection meant anything to you, come on back for more stuff on the widened interest. I don’t think I will ever be the kind of blogger who changes the world, but it will change me and my relation to the world – so that is a good thing. In trickster fashion, learn the limits of appetite, reduce your footprints on the planet, and find the joys of the skies.
