I’m really leaving this time, I swear!

As I was writing the welcome post on the new site, lyrics from a song came to me. A song which, I think, sort of sums up how I feel about this whole site closure thing.
This is really it, then. This is my farewell. This is my farewell to Se7enet, and to all of those who have visited and followed throughout the last eight years. Goodbye, all of you. Thank you for all the good times. Of course, it doesn’t have to be goodbye for you. The only real goodbye, here, is between me and Se7enet. And as I write this, I am sort of just now realizing exactly how hard that goodbye really is. When I posted the thing this morning, I wasn’t really thinking about it… I was just… posting. Now I’m kind of tearing up a little bit. Because this time it’s more real, somehow.
Anyway, I better get this over with, before I lose it. It’s kind of ridiculous, really. I’m a grown man, and this is just some stupid website. It’s not like it’s my kid or anything, right? And yet, here I am, wiping my stupid eyes.
Thanks again, everyone. You have no idea how much you’ve meant to me.

Neverset – The Last Hardest Thing
I’ve got something to say
And I hope you take the time to listen
My words get in the way
You can blame it on me if it eases your pain
‘Cause I’m tired of holding on
I can’t do this alone you know
The first hardest thing
Is for me to walk away
But I’ll keep moving on
To get where I need to be, so don’t look back at me.
There’s nothing left to say
I can’t be the man that you want me to be
Our hearts want different things
Now the hard goodbye just got easier for me
‘Cause I’m tired of holding on
This time I’ll do it alone, you’ll see
The first hardest thing
Is for me to walk away
But I’ll keep moving on
To get where I need to be, so don’t look back at me.
All the lies that you told
And the secrets you hold
Sleepless nights all alone
All rolled into one
I said I wouldn’t leave
You should have believed
I can not get over what you did to me
The first hardest thing
Is for me to walk away
But I’ll keep moving on
To get where I need to be, so don’t look back at me.
The last hardest thing
Now that we both parted ways
Is to ask for forgiveness
And not to look back at me
And that’s the last hardest thing.
Yeah that’s the last hardest thing.

JaminBlount.com will, from here on out, be my new address.
As I mentioned in my previous post, I believe Se7enet has run its course, and my blogging focus, such as it ever was, has changed. It saddens me… I’ve been using this domain since 2001, so it’s got a lot of history… a lot of me wrapped up in it.
I do plan on keeping the Se7enet.com domain, and at some point I may start using it again for something else. If nothing else, I’ll probably keep it for the email, since I’ve had just this one email address for the last 8 years. But for now, consider this my final post here. Thank you all for the wonderful times.
Once again, you can continue to follow me at JaminBlount.com.
