Chana appears to be calling it quits. For a variety of (obvious) reasons, I don't say which blogs are my favorites; however, I am going to make an exception. Before I started using an RSS/Atom reader, I would have to open each blog from my blogroll or by typing it in. Curious Jew was almost always one of the first I would open, wondering if Chana had posted yet another beautiful, inspiring, thought-provoking, and brilliantly written, put-together post. I'm not quite sure what happened (and honestly, I don't care), but this is what she wrote:
When this blog starts doing more harm than good, then I'm done.As I wrote in the comments:
When this blog starts upsetting people for no good cause, then it's not fulfilling its purpose.
I hope you decide to do what's best for you, and if that means stopping, that's the decision you should make. But if think you are doing more harm than good, I think you underestimate the good that you do.I sincerely hope this will not be the last we read of Chana. Regardless...
Chana, thank you for inspiring us all.
You will be sorely missed.
I'm done writing goodbye posts. The Godol has quit at least 4 times now.
ReplyDeleteYeah, but Chana's very different. She's not the type to keep going/coming back on a whim (I think).
ReplyDeleteIs it me, or do you also feel that when a blogger quits, you have a lost a good friend that was always there to talk to.
ReplyDeleteOh well, at least we know Ezzie is sticking around. He has no job anyways :)

ReplyDeleteDifferent bloggers in different ways, but yes.

Ouch.
Does blogging have a shelf life?
ReplyDeleteEzzie,
ReplyDeleteWhy don't you invite chana to join the consiracy?
I sure hope she thinks it over and decides to come back. I really enjoyed reading her blog. : (
ReplyDeleteSeems like the past few weeks have been rough on the JBlogsphere.
ReplyDelete*sigh*
Its a shame to see her go, she was a fine writer.
