As you probably know (I mean, you are here, right?), the title of this blog is Go Loving By. It has occurred to me that if anyone ever actually reads this blog, this might be considered a kind of weird name, so I thought I would explain it now.
One of my favorite poets of all time is Robert Frost (original, I know) and he has a poem called Carpe Diem. The poem starts out: "Age saw two quiet children/ Go loving by at twilight" and as you may have guessed the phrase "go loving by" really stuck out to me. Not necessarily because that happens to be what the quiet children happened to be doing, but rather because I feel these are good life instructions. Go loving by. Don't stop, don't get tangled up in anything. Don't hate or resent or hold grudges. Go loving by.
So that is why the name of my blog is Go Loving By. As a side note, I highly recommend the poem and the poet.
