Caught off guard

A reader who I'd shared brief private correspondence with has asked me to delete his number and never email him because of his disgust of my last post.  I can't describe how shocked and hurt I was by this. 

That said I've removed the post.  I'm horrified to be viewed as disgusting, but if one reader was willing to say it out loud there have to be others who are thinking it.  It's kind of how it goes. 

I am going to take a break from blogging while I figure this out.  If I'm crossing the line just to titillate readers and not being true to who I am, then I'm losing site of the purpose of writing. 

I will be back.  I just need to lick my wounds.
