Never Good Enough

I have received a negative comment from one of my readers that my little essays could be more informative and of more help healthwise as I have put a lot of time into learning alternative ways of healing both mind and body. My objection to writing about this in a teaching sort of way is that I am not qualified to give anyone information other than, "I had that whatever it was and this remedy helped me." I was only involved in this stuff because I thought there had to be a gentler way for my children to be treated when they were sick. Once that idea entered my head I seemed to fall over lots of alternative ways of maintaining health. It was meant to be. Besides doctors scare me. What the information I acquired was never meant to be was a way to earn a living or even something to write about other than my adventures with it. Follow at your own peril. The whole point of this blogging lark is to have a laugh myself over the vagaries of life and maybe to raise a smile from you, gentle reader. I hope that satisfies my critic. If the universe had wanted me to impart knowledge to people it would have made me an academic but it didn't, so we are just going to have to live with it. Comments eagerly awaited.

Well there is a disclaimer on the right-handed side about how this is supposed to be about alternative healing but isn't, so really your critic doesn't have any leg to stand on. I for one like the little blog entries, they remind me of Bill Bryson (if Bill Bryson was a woman in Canada instead of a guy in the States).
