  28. First of all I would like to say excellent blog!
    I had a quick question in which I’d like to ask
    if you do not mind. I was curious to find out how you center yourself and clear your head before
    writing. I have had trouble clearing my thoughts in getting
    my thoughts out there. I truly do enjoy writing but it
    just seems like the first 10 to 15 minutes are usually lost just trying to figure out how to begin. Any ideas or hints?
    Cheers!

  33. Howdy! This post could not be written any better! Reading through this post reminds me
    of my previous room mate! He always kept talking about this.
    I will forward this write-up to him. Pretty sure he will have a good read.
    Thank you for sharing!
