In saying this I have been working our for almost 40 years and it still gives me a great deal of pleasure to go to the gym and work up a great sweat and feel the muscles being tight from hard activity. You do feel confident and a sense of well being that goes with it. When you work out your body releases endomorphins which can gives us a sense of high.

]]> Comment on Speech therapy and my love of language by John McGarry M.S. CCC-SLP http://brucebyfield.wordpress.com/2008/05/08/speech-therapy-and-my-love-of-language/#comment-4298 John McGarry M.S. CCC-SLP Fri, 09 May 2008 10:21:37 +0000 http://brucebyfield.wordpress.com/?p=220#comment-4298 Thank you for your inspiring story. As a practicing SLP of today you have mostly captured the reason why I try to do what I do every day. One thought came to mind as I was pondering your statement that you think that the direction of your life was due to over compensation, maybe your experiences turned on your passions and dedication to the art of language. As someone who feels sometimes like a 'grease-monkey' of language, to hear that a student has become a language artist is a warm thought indeed. Keep up the good work and stay sane.

If you do have affiliations, you should think twice about covering related subjects. And if you do cover related subjects you need to disclose those affiliations as openly as possible. Of course not. :-)

I think you also have to be seen to be writing without favoritism. Leslie:

As long as I can draw the line between those private opinionated endeavours and my professional work, that is. And in most of the cases I'm pretty confident that I can manage to do so.
