		<title>How do you relax?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Whenever I am away on a conference or workshop weekend I run a short meditation/relaxation session before dinner on the first night for anyone who wants to join in.  I always start these sessions by asking everyone in the group how they relax when they get the chance.  There are usually a wide variety of [...]]]></description>

		<title>Who have you inspired?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[The original title of this post was &#8216;who has inspired you?&#8217; but as I was writing it I realised that the question should, in fact be, &#8216;who have you inspired?&#8217;  Now I know the inclination is to say &#8216;no-one, who could I possibly have inspired?&#8217; but the reality is that we have all had a [...]]]></description>

		<title>When did you last feel good?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last week I got some new spectacles.  My first pair were bought in 1993 and each time the prescription has changed I have reused the existing frames.  I decided these frames were a little &#8216;old hat&#8217; now and it was time to change them to a more modern look. The &#8216;fitter&#8217; was great.  She showed [...]]]></description>

		<title>If you don&#8217;t have a go you&#8217;ll never know&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last weekend I went to a concert in a local church, a small village called Salle in North Norfolk.  Once a year this group of singers raise money for a local charity.  There were around 80 people singing and the church was full to bursting with family and friends who had all paid £7 each [...]]]></description>

		<title>Helping out where we can</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When someone close to us in our lives has a crisis how far do we go to help out? When someone not so close to us has a crisis how far do we go to help out then?  And what about someone we don&#8217;t know at all, a stranger in the street? Recently on UK [...]]]></description>

		<title>Can you afford it?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[When I was planning my trip to America I felt like a bit of a spendthrift.  I mean, how many ordinary people get to go to the USA, and especially at this point in time when so many are struggling to make ends meet?  It seems somehow less extravagant to say &#8216;I&#8217;m going to Turkey&#8217;, [...]]]></description>

		<title>Do you feel famous?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have just returned from a three week break in the USA.  It was a great opportunity to meet some people I have made friends with via the internet, to talk lots about Internet Marketing, and to see a little bit of a country I have always wanted to visit.  In fact I liked it [...]]]></description>

		<title>How hard can it be to write 200 words?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[My posting has been a little spasmodic lately due to some &#8216;off-line life&#8217; activities and events that have prevented me from spending as much time as I would like online.  When I have managed to get on here I seem to sit staring at a blank screen with a topic in mind &#8211; but no [...]]]></description>

		<title>Lost and found</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I am amazed at how we can lose things that seem to be intrinsic to our very being but then find something far more precious, far more satisfying, and giving us a feeling of being far more complete.  There is a saying that when one door closes another opens, and this is very true.  The [...]]]></description>

		<title>Change is inevitable</title>
		<description><![CDATA[On a daily basis we face changes in our lives.  Sometimes these changes are so small we hardly notice them.  Every now and again a major change happens.  That can be okay if you have instigated the change yourself, but there are times when that change is forced on you by someone else, or by [...]]]></description>
