Storytelling
Like a good book I found myself keen to return to these lectures. Mr Blight has a serene sense of timing and terse wit is a wonderful storyteller with the somewhat detached gravitas to tell this story. I have tried to listen to several other lectures, some good, but they feel like school. This feels like wisdom from the fire side. Thank you for the opportunity to share this experience to all concerned. Yay to the digital age.
