I blog because it is cathartic and empowering. It is also more considerate of my friends and family to give them a break from listening to me. My partner is especially grateful. She can read my thoughts when she has time or not. Up to her.

I would appreciate comments from those of you who read my entries. I would welcome different viewpoints and I would like to engage in a dialogue. I see the world through a lens shaped by my life’s trajectory and family story, so my view is necessarily constrained.
