		<description>[...] Blogging is that process for me. I write to unwind my wooly thoughts, instincts and fears and arrive at a decision. Hopefully a good decision. A self-respecting decision. And I did. I chose not to join a relationship in which I would have to accept a &#8216;not good enough&#8217; feeling. I chose not to trade my confidence for companionship.

		<description>[...] Why blog? Because when you do it long enough you learn about yourself. You see yourself in a powerful, articulate, and &#8220;scripted&#8221; way. There&#8217;s telling data. There&#8217;s anecdote. There&#8217;s language. There are keywords that invite insight and a few more things: risk, desire, passion, conversation, life, and hope! [...]</description>
