One less blog

People have asked your Center City Correspondent why I haven’t written lately.  I didn’t have a real good answer because life here in Center City has been great lately.  I could tell you about the new bars and restaurants we’ve been to, or the half-price shows, or fireworks on New Year’s Eve.  But you’ve all read that stuff before.  So it made me think harder for a real answer.  And then it came to me.  This blog wasn’t about life in town, trying to convince you the reader to give Center City a try.  I realized that this was a love letter to Mrs. CCC, trying to convince her that Center City is a great place to live (and work).  And I think I finally succeeded.  When I hear her tell people how convenient things are, or how she wants to explore other parts of town, or how she gets tired of driving up and down I-95 to do things when she can accomplish the same things closer to home, I feel like she has finally turned the corner and accepted our new way of life.  I knew she would finally realize that, she’s smart and adaptable and I love her for that, and a million other reasons.

So this will be my last posting on this blog.  Taking on a new persona was fun.  Trying to get people to realize the gem of a city we live in was challenging and fulfilling.  My hope for you is that you find someplace where you are as contented as I am, where the stresses of daily life are overwhelmed by the peace you find within yourself.
