Paul actually wrote this a few months ago. I rescued it from my RSS feed and republished it, so you might not hear back from Paul. But I wanted to thank you for reading it and for sharing your thoughts with us.

Terry and Joe – you were lucky you found each other .. and you were sensible that you didn’t walk away because they weren’t giving you street cred as such.

Your take on what they did give you – has held true .. dependendability, working together as a team, allowing expression – while maintaining their sound & thus keeping their audience.

My real eye opener in life – was working (late 30s – early 40s) with a committee organising squash games & tournaments .. it was a large club and we had lots of teams and social events – it was in South Africa .. I wasn’t on my own – trying to work my way through life. I’ve drawn on those experiences ever since and on friends and relations, who have happy marriages and who are happy with themselves –

Once this period is over .. I hope the lessons I’ve learnt and very importantly the lessons I’ve learnt here blogging .. will help me be the person I would like to be and thus stimulate and inspire people to think about their lives, and make improvements and help others along the way.

Becoming a role model for someone or people is a strange thing for me to want to be/ to aspire to .. but it seems to be my direction in the future via developing the blog .. but I’ll still be me, with lots to work on!

This was really interesting – thanks Jay and Paul .. have good weekends .. Hilary
