Clearly the presentation had come too close to home. The more I thought about it, the more I shied away from it. I don't think I have experienced the deep well in my stomach in any of those instances as I did last week. It reminded me of how one might feel being blindfolded and placed on a never ending rollercoaster. Often it's tough to deal with topics that get too close.
Distance is something to cherish and hold to.
The ride was wonderful. I have received some very beautiful emails and comments from people who attended. Apparently my lack of focus and ramblings went over successfully. I guess I can claim I kept in the spirit of the topic at hand.
