		<title>Slow motion</title>
		<description><![CDATA[At times when I am very busy, when the tendency is to become unsettled, upset, panicked, I employ a coping mechanism that works for me.

		<title>If you really loved me&#8230;</title>
		<description><![CDATA[I have been a family therapist for a very long time. I should have figured it out sooner, but only yesterday I realized that I had been missing something very important when thinking about certain types of cases.

		<title>Are you in your pajamas?</title>
		<description><![CDATA[Last week I gave a lecture. I had lectured at this place before. Usually there is a room full of maybe 20-30 people. They are bright-eyed, attentive, and a great audience.
