Fourth anniversary of move to WSI celebrated
The move to the Consulting of WSI Internet & Education has the new host of the World of Words by Elias Tobias happened four years ago on Feb. 12, 2007. Things have changed for the better. The new host allowed for more flexibility and expansion in a simpler format, and that has made the difference. The process to make the move took at least three months to complete the transfer all material from the free host (see press release).
Personal Blog on Fan Club Web site reactivated
Even though the number of daily posts for the main part of the blog is changing (see below), there is one part of the web blog that is new and fresh. The personal blog on the Fan Club Web site has been reactivated as part of a personal resolution for at least two entries per week. Check it out and read what the latest bit of information there is in the life of Elias Tobias. The blog is part of the Elias Tobias Fan Club, another free aspect of the Elias Tobias World of Words.
Changes coming to poetry web blog
The New Year will bring changes to the World of Words by Elias Tobias. No regular schedule of posts will happen. Also, the contract for the column by Rev. Abernathy will end, and he said the experience has been good. Since he is getting busier, he has decided not to continue the column, All Things Considered, for another year.
The supply of poems has been rapidly used after three years of daily posts. I would like to keep the newer poems by the brothers on the site, especially as the unofficial fraternity has expanded.
As the creative spirit moves in to my world, I will have other posts, both poetic and photographic, but not on a regular basis. There are more than 300 poems and other features of this web blog to read, so those who have not had a chance to catch up on a daily basis will have plenty to read.

Poem of the Month
Finding the Future
I can’t figure out the future,
since I dropped and cracked my
crystal ball.
It’s not as reliable as it used to be.
The visions are harder to see.
and I’m unable to get another one.
I have to live now like everyone else,
plans for the future, but still
take one day at a time.
The future is something I’ll find
while I go on my way.
There’s not much else to say, except
I should have bought replacement
coverage for that useless cracked
glass.
Material things can’t last forever.
