I said I would take the weekend off. As it turned out, I didn\u2019t quite succeed.<\/p>\n
That said, I did in one way. I told myself I could relax. I caught a bug as a result.<\/p>\n
The ideas did not, however, cease flowing, so I wrote.<\/p>\n
Then I looked for feedback, and having gone a day or so without it, I now realise how important it is to me, even though it comes at a cost.<\/p>\n
Then, much of the feedback I got on the article on neoliberalism and autism was aggressive, repugnant, and simply nasty. I did not post the offensive items that were offered here. I have not deleted them elsewhere, and have tried to engage with them, whilst trying to control my anger that some are so willing to abuse others.<\/p>\n
After posting 26,000 items on this blog, with the one on neoliberalism being the 26,000th, perhaps I should not be surprised. However, after that much writing, at an average of 3.48 posts per day over more than 20 years, it still seems as though there is more to do.<\/p>\n
The lesson for me is that I still need to stick with this, but that I also need to learn how to take time off, which, at 68, I still haven't properly mastered.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
