I love reading your blog. It’s like an open window straight into your brain at times (I almost wrote “brian”, which conjures up all manner of Pythonesque scenes).

I’m trying not to think about the machinations of teenagers brains – I have enough trouble with a four, six, and nine year old at home.

I have one right now whose story I restrain myself from babbling about to everyone in my vicinity. You know how it is, sometimes one just grabs you and you want to fix everything even though it’s unlikely that you can.

I describe my job as a combination of social work and teaching at this point. These lives I work with are so heavy and what I find out has nothing to do with why they come to me in the first place.

I don’t tell their stories at all, even anonymously, but you make me think about it more these days.

You have never yet told us any story that hasn’t protected the privacy of others. You manage to make us laugh and cry along with the stories. You have the ability to tell it all without taking the anonymity away from anyone. Though just once can you write us a “Child M” story just for the giggle factor?

Stop thinking so much, breathe and just be you. BECAUSE YOU ROCK!

I was always under the impression that being mentally unstable was a prerequisite to being a writer. Maybe you just are not quite unstable enough yet? LOL xoxoxox
