ClinicallyClueless’s last blog post..“You Never Let Go” ~ Matt Redman ~ Worship in Song

I’m having some issues with cycling, so I’d like to take a couple of days on this. I started out bitching and whining and then hit the pink cloud!

If I do this over a couple of days, hopefully I can rise above my relentless self. And I seriously want to respond to your article on the psychic.

It’s important, so I want to reply correctly. A bit hard now, as every couple of words I have to pause and twiddle my fingers!

Then I’ll be too tired.

Almost forgot, I’m going to study to be a dog trainer, hopefully toward rehabbing and therapy dogs.

I would love to be interviewed by you, and I can’t wait to see what CC writes!

Dano MacNamarrah’s last blog post..Mea Culpa, Erased.

This is a great starting point for our panel at Northern Voice. I like Nancy’s comment above; sometimes life is really not that complicated, and the obvious starting place to solve problems is to talk about it. But people hold stuff in, especially taboo messy stuff. Blogging is great for dialogue. Yes, I know I’m preaching to the converted, but not everyone at the conference will have made the connection, like Nancy had not. Make sense? I’m just a little excited is all.
