You are...I'm so glad I've found you Bruce. You are a voice that needs to be heard today. <br /><br />There is irony for me, because I was a big-time believer in chi. I practiced tai chi, did reiki, carried chrytals, etc etc etc. At this moment, I'm in a very critical (cynical to be truthful) place. I don't consider it to be a "crisis of faith". It is simply intellectual honesty. That said, the timing of finding your ideas expressed through writing is perfect. It helps me to hold in creative tension my life experiences with chi healing coupled with my current state of cynicism and evidence based approach. <br /><br />I guess I just want to say 'thank you' for sharing what you do. Finding you is a blessing in my life. I'm sure others feel that way too. <br />BrianBrianhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/18396901667077846319noreply@blogger.com
