Your Comment or Reply

Your comment or reply may be shown here, only if you ask for that (you may use a pseudonym), and if you tried to share your best thinking. Everyone is eager to read what you think.

Don’t volunteer here your (life) story. We are less interested in your personal experiences that you should share but… first for evaluation in sessions. After that, your story may still be good thinking to share and teach with but not because you are emotional about it.

We are not interested in a critique or review of what others did or thought.

Anyway, always nice to read a concrete validation. Throw one in, free of charge!
