Four years ago I think I was probably blogging more about political issues, whereas now I tend to focus on important things like architectural detail and the changing angle of the light as the seasons move forward.
It’s not that I won’t be disappointed if Romney wins; it’s more that the thought is so unbearable that I can’t even begin to really address it in a contemplative manner.
I want this blog to be more placid and reflective than filled with political histrionics.
(Which admittedly is not the best strategy for pulling in traffic, as I know from personal experience, having in the past maintained a much more politically charged and abrasive blog.)
So whatever happens, let’s be consoled by the idea that the beautiful, dilapidated buildings of Washington Heights are not going anywhere.
Which is just one of many comforting truths.
Here’s another: there will be rain, but the skies will eventually clear, allowing the sun to shine.
