I have really enjoyed participating in this - and have just sent my offering to Gary - why not think about taking part?
The 2024 series of the #AdventBlogs - the 14th since it started, and my 6th and final one as curator - starts on 1 December and will make its BlueSky debut.

This year's theme: "I don't want to go"

Welcome to 2025. That seems odd to say, as it is still mid-December as I write this, and the new year seems a long way off. Our series will continue hopefully well into January, but we are undoubtedly...

Advent blogs, coming soon!

Each year since 2011 the #AdventBlogs series has been something that I look forward to every 1st December.

The various posts, from a wide range of contributors, are linked by a common theme.

It’s the launch of #AdventBlogs with the
theme of “its time to change”.
Our first blog comes from @garycookson.bsky.social, who I took over the curation of
#AdventBlogs from, so its only right that
he gets us started.

I wrote these words for an annual blog series called #AdventBlogs lovingly curated by Gary Cookson - this year we were given the title "I don't want to go"
These words are written as a challenge to myself.
But they might also be a challenge to you

No it doesn’t. @garycookson.bsky.social has had the #AdventBlogs last as long as he has submissions from people. #HRCommunity

It's a new week of #adventblogs and Ruhul Saiyed focuses on the topic of being more in the moment, than adding more to our lives. A wonderful reflective post, that has made me stop and think.

The current series of the #AdventBlogs will conclude on Sunday unless any further posts are received. In the final post I’ll say my own goodbyes to the series and those who have read and contributed to it.
