It’s heartwarming to relate to an audience on an immediate basis. You write something that you care about, and readers write back and say they care, too.
However, blogs are not enduring. Once a blog is written, and read, it usually doesn’t have much lasting value. There are some exceptions to that principle, but not many. After all, there are almost a million blogs out there now.
So when you write a blog, after it is read, it is deleted and the computer code gets sent to the Big Byte Bucket in The Computer Dump, where the bits are burned and recycled into more blogs, which are read and then deleted and sent back to the Big Byte Bucket, and so on … and so on …
But a story … if it is good enough, it can last forever in a Book. Just open the Bible, the longest running bestseller, 3,400 years on the NY Times bestseller list.
Dear Reader, for some time now, I’ve missed doing more serious writing – novels, plays, and stories. I still wrote them, when the ache in my heart demanded it, though far less frequently. Why?
I had difficulty finding an audience. While I love the act of writing, I also get great pleasure in being read and enjoyed by others. So I channeled by writing energy into this blog.
Recently, I discovered secret Kabbalistic Internet techniques in the Zohar, called Mystical SEO. Who would have thought Rabbi Shimon bar Yochai, 2,000 years ago, would have known the Internet was coming? It was promised that using Mystical SEO, and living a good and Holy life, a writer can find an audience for stories, plays, and novels.
Here is the Gammatria of how Mystical SEO works:
There are now over a billion people connected to the Internet, and each of them is searching for entertainment. Mystical SEO will help an author persuade at least one person out of a million to seek out their writing. If you take one out of a million and apply it to a billion, that translates into a thousand readers.
This is exactly the minimum number needed to spare an author’s words from being sent to the inferno in the Big Byte Bucket in The Computer Dump, and to live eternally in Book Heaven.
It is fitting to end Kabbalah Kronicles, on number 36, which is twice 18. The letters in the Hebrew word Chai, which means Life, add up to 18, and has been taken to be lucky. 36 means double life, and this blog was doubly wonderful for me.
Now if I can just learn how to live a good and Holy life ….
Cheers and Happy Holidays … and Yivorechah adonoy Vayishmarechah.
May the Lord Bless you and Watch Over you.
