I am contemplating the number of reasons I come here lately. One of them seems to be habit which I am also wondering if it is a good one or bad one. I am thinking that maybe I need to get some perspective by staying away. I don't know when that might be, but it might be soon. The air has been getting thick here again and the ability to breathe is becoming more difficult.
There are also other things going on in my private life for which I am considering taking some time off. I have said in the past that I would be taking sabbaticals and have come back sooner than I should have. So I won't say when I will be taking one, but that one is impending.

Scott, I have often taken a hiatus from message boards I've been on and it greatly benefited me (and my family). Sometimes it has been for a week and others 6 months to a year before returning. There have only been a few boards I haven't returned to and that's because they were just "Christian" boards with the majority being decision theologists who boast a works righteousness and don't understand that it truly is works! LOL
So, the point of my post is one of support to let you know that it's ok to take a break...but then, please return :D

I think everyone would hate to see you go but if you have to, don't stay away to long....Good luck and God bless you

Hey Scott
I am in the exact same dilema as you are. I doubt that I spend as much time on forums as you do, but I have all but given up on another forum I have belonged to for over a year.
I think we need to carefully look at how we spend our time, as each day that is gone by we can never replace.
I think belonging to this forum is good, but we have to be aware that there are other things in life that need attention as well.
I am here right now simply because I can not sleep.
God's Blessings to you in guiding your decisions. :prayer:

I know that this wouldn't work for everyone and may not work in your situations, but what I have found is that it is helpful for me to limit the number of boards (for me 3) and the number of posts on each.
Hope this might help
