Steep learning curve

Giving talks is not an easy task. It makes it even more difficult when your subject knowledge is not good enough. It gets worse when you are a naturally quiet person. That much I learned when I am giving my religious talk at the local 'surau'. Its a struggle to get the materials for the talk. There are days when I thought I did well and there are days when I thought I was not talking incoherently, meaning doing badly. The fact that my session is only once a month didn't help either but then, if its every two weeks, what do I speak about? It is something new to me, giving religious talk at a surau. In my whole life, I have never done it. Suddenly, at fifty nine, I am doing it for the first time! Its a steep learning curve for me, that's for sure.
