Farewell Blog

It's been quite a while since I last blogged here, and from the looks of things, Cilicia.com may be changing ownership at some point. Having read Raffi Kojian's cyber "for sale" sign on the Cilicia.com site, this may be as good a time as any to say goodbye to blogging.

So, I want to publicly thank Raffi K. for giving me the opportunity and forum to write whatever I wanted on this blog since June 2001. I've enjoyed sharing my thoughts and meeting others through the experience.

2008 has been an interesting turning point for me personally and professionally. I have jumped back into the corporate world while still maintaining Pomegranate and YerazArt projects. My wife and I are contemplating a move from Boston to a destination that I have always had a passion for in the United States. We'll see how that comes through. Thinking about becoming parents sometime soon. I haven't been to Armenia since 2006, although I try to keep up through the blogs and personal/professional contacts.

Nearing 40 in a few years, it's time to move on to the next stage in life. So, thanks again to the Cilicia.com bloggers and readers for your comments and input over the years. I hope to catch you at a concert sometime soon...- Raffi Meneshian
