But I Don't Know Where To Start We've all cried this at one time or another - Or is it just me? And every reason I give seems so valid.

Fanning The Flames and Nipping The Bud Wouldn't it be great to have a metaphor and use it for two things not just one?

Getting our feet wet and expecting something different From a recent experience of a client worrying that they didn't feel the same as the last session - why was that?

Turning Pain Into Pleasure Some human beings find it today acceptable to inflict pain to others for gain and we're the only species that does that.

Feeling Grateful But Differently I don't know if you're like me, I believe in the feeling of gratitude and how it connects to your unconscious mind the feelings of what makes your life rich.
