I might ask you a question or two from time to time, if you don't mind.

A session like this really can stir up the streambed... Get a lot of stuff

lifted up off the bottom, and cleared away...  But the clearing away can cause some effects, too-- feelings of anger, of restlessness, of confusion, of sadness...    Physical exertion can really help.  So can deep, cleansing breathing.  Also, the allowing of those feelings to flow, expressing them, not to or at anyone, just letting them out-- can help, as the body matches the emotional letting-go, and releases stuff it has been holding onto, or stuck with. 

It isn't surprising that you know what to do, even if you didn't realize you knew...

Thank you for clarifying that sentiment. I must admit that I was a little bit let down yesterday, and I let out some grief while working. But, now I see that I do have what it takes to be both a father, successful businessman, and author.

I took Sam with me today to deliver some firewood. He worked his little tail off! He is once again a smiling, happy child. Thanks so much for your help.

Thanks for inviting me in for such a close look at you and your family!
I am so glad the information is already bearing fruit...  One thing I would like to clarify, from your description here--  regarding getting into the world of publishing:  To publishers, it is about what sells.  You and I, and the Blogiteers around us, know full well it is about craft and art and quality...  Packaging them so a publisher will buy them for a fair price-- that's the business bit.  Agents can help a lot, because they know their way around that jungle, including negotiating the best paycheck for the hours you put into writing, revising, polishing, etc...

He was one of the first to give me positive feedback. I miss his presence here, too.

I think the term Ciel used was 'useful'. I could see an instantaneous change in Sam when I started asking him to do things for me.

My little ones love to have "chores" to do. It makes them feel more
needed, I think.  Glad things are getting better!

It really was incredible. I hope to do it again. Thanks.

isn't it great when someone gives us an angle to view things
that we couldn't previouisly see? Sounds like a strenghtening of the family unit so love can flow with more grace and harmony. All the best.

She said what I needed to hear, rather than what I would have preferred. Thanks for the kind words.

That really was nice of her to do that. Yes, I remember Voyager. He's a really nice fellow.
