Temporary Sabbatical

Dear friends;

It is with great sadness that I will have to put my activities on the site on hold for about a month or so.

The reason is simple enough: Cataracts. My vision has been worsening for sometime now, and as much as I would love to continue blogging every week and answering all my emails, it has gotten to the point where I can barely make out the words on the screen these days. And since I am also a dedicated nature photographer, this has made it doubly difficult for me.

My surgery is scheduled for September 22, after which I will need to rest my eye a little. The other, the right one, also has a cataract, but since it is already blind, there's not much point worrying over it yet, although it, too will undergo lenticular replacement surgery eventually. Once my good seeing eye is done with surgery, I should be able to see everything well once again, and resume my blogging and commenting activities. Nope, you haven't heard the last of me, but that's in a good way!

Thanks for your understanding. I will continue to have my ad up on the site, but I might want to suspend visibility so that I don't get emails I can't answer just yet. I'll still be around, only not as active.

Thank you to all my readers and commenters. You're the real reason I enjoy coming to this site. As always, stay positive and don't give up hope on making that lifelong connection!

Sincerely,

Marc
