Kerryn Harrington Tuesday Nights - What to do?

I love Tuesday nights because I have my time-out, my 3rd Place experience for the week. I play competition eight-ball in a team with 11 other people. We're not just a sporting team, we're also long term friends. We don't all know each other inside out even though some of us have known each other for 10+ years but we seem to have friendships that are kind of like those unconditional family bonds.

Ferdy Social networks for everyone

Wouldn't it be nice if everyone had a social network where they felt safe and could express their thoughts and feelings openly and receive support and feedback, without fear or intimidation. 3rd Places are so important for everybody, not just lonely, isolated people, but even those who have busy lives and meet lots of people....often they don't have spaces where they can have truly meaningful conversations. I hope that this blog spot will help at least one person to find their 3rd Place Continue
