I've started, so I will finish....

So, there IS a first time for everything! Tentatively got to this point, so now expect to leap off into cyberspace. Testing 123 etc. see what happens:-)

  1. HI Chirs,
    Well done you got a post on your blog :-)
    I remember back then, in 2005, when I started my online shop in this mysterious world wide web (www) that I was awaiting with some trepidation the cyber storm of orders rolling in

  4. Hi Chris,
    I am tentatively taking baby steps as well into this new world of instant responses from other people's computers. Kind of scarey and exciting at the same time. I wonder if it will become addictive like other fun and adrenalin inducing activities.

  5. Kia ora Janette,

    good on you! I hope it doesn't become a distraction. i.e. procrastination is a problem already. I don't need another place to go to avoid the important things (Like writing my assignments:-)

    e noho ra,
    Chris

    Procrastination is certainly something I am aware of in my life. Study usually comes under that heading but increasingly I find myself being drawn to sit down and read more on the issues around ethics and law. I really had such low expectations for the course but am finding the material, discussions and new insights that I am immediately putting into my practice, enlightening and a joy.
    the James Pennebaker audio interview was fascinating that either Robert or Terry put up as a link. I am definitely feeling very healthy lately. The regular visits to the gym theoretically should be accounting for this. Pennebaker's book "Opening up" however could be a good read. How writing your emotional story, the secret things you hold inside, when disclosed, even just to ourselves, free us from all sorts of physical dis-ease. That must be why sharing our reflections on the forums each evening is so contagious. Addictive even. I must now go and cook tea, also an addiction with me, hence the need to go to the gym.
    Kia kaha

  7. Hi Janette,
    I found that Pennebaker interview very fascinating too :-)
    And I like your way of writing 'dis-ease', makes one look at this word from a different angle. Nice one.
