On Talking. I've been silent too long. Ok. Ok. I've been writing, but not physically talking. But that's changed. Podcasts. A friend that I met through the blogging world, Jonathan (jonbeckett.com), has just started a podcast!

In yesterday's Tuesday Truth #48, I told you that I had a story to tell from my weekend away. A story about being present and the lessons I learned from those instances.
