I read your blog for the first time today, and then read quite a few of your earlier posts.

Please know I am not a blogger or a blog reder, i have a life so filled up with my own goings on & things I tend to find blogging and or reading blogs take up to much time. BUT after reading yours and getting small insight into what/who you are… it was as if you were speaking my soul. I felt a deep connection to everything you said and if I had a blog… That would be what i would want for and from it.

I thank the Good Lord for people like you in the world, to help make it a bit easier? and maybe less scary? a place to exist and co-exist, grow and awake from the coma state in which most of us live.

Keep up the good vibe you are sending out.

Your blog definitely can make a difference in peoples lives. The right people, the people that want to break free from the oppression of those who would have us believe less.

God Bless

I love your honesty, your passion, your “real-ness”.

I’m seriously on the fence about the kitchen table – because I know it’s SO worth it, but I also know I can’t afford it. oy.

I’ll figure this out. In the meantime, keep doing what you’re doing and don’t throw your computer out the window please. I’d miss you ;)

I’ve been reading your posts for a couple of weeks now; all of them deeply engaging, freakishly aligned (and I mean that in the absolute, most stellar sense) and chock full of practical insight/tools. Thank you!

I haven’t commented before as your comment threads are already so full. So full of incredible additions and insights. :0) Awesome. I’ve felt complete when finished reading all of them; no need to comment. This time is no different really…except for the intense urge to say, ME TOO.

I’ve been hearing that voice inside nudging me to add more of my own day to day process…on the way to the epiphanies. I forget sometimes that while it all just seems sort of second hat to me; that it may be more interesting and helpful than I give it credit for.

This is true for anyone, really. Our lives are colorful (you’re is exceptionally ducky :~) People enjoy reading other people’s ‘color’…it’s what weaves the tapestry that much brighter.

Here’s to putting more of “us” into our writing. More soul, anyone? Yes, please. :0)

Thanks for creating such a safe space, and for feeling safe yourself, with all of us in the space you’ve created.

“Spread over us your canopy of Peace”

Yes, please. There is *nothing* cheesy about that!

Peace, Love and Harmony… Debra

Very interested in what you both said about experiencing your “stuff” as colored textures like broccoli and pink dust bunnies.

I imagine my creative energy as a floating hot pink energy plasma that lives just under my skin. It comes out of my head, or my chest, or I spray it out of my fingers and it becomes my artwork.

Weird right? But it totally feels right to me and so I illustrated it as my Twitter background.

Maybe it’s useful to try to experience both negative stuff like regret and positive stuff like love, creativity, etc. as textures, colors, smells, whatever, to help get a handle on them and direct them.

Thanks for writing about your process. I find reading about it very helpful.

Also, your blog is functioning as a canopy of peace for me and I am very grateful for it.

Best,

I often will see the outside of someone I admire (Havi=insightful yogi thinker of profound thoughts) unconsciously compare it my own insides (me=person with a million flaws and regrets) and find myself lacking. So for you to open up your “insides” is such a gift.

It means that, for me, just reading your words is an actual, immediate, and active healing opportunity. I doubt many “personal development” writers can say that ;)

I’m still working on two big regrets (from 9 and 7 years ago…yikes). But I know what you mean about the emotional charge lessening over time. As of now they’re just kind of in my back pocket–not stopping me from moving forward, but not quite gone yet either. Something you said reminded me of Maya Angelou’s words: “You did what you knew how to do, and when you knew better, you did better.” That’s sort of my mantra when I fall too deep into the pocket of regret.

This place is so much better because you guys are here with me in this process-ey thing, and that you never mind when I get all cheesy but that you also don’t mine when I apologize for it. It’s really delightful.

@Hopey, Julianna, Eva, Mona, Diane, Joyce & Leonie – a kiss on the nose to each of you. Thanks for the sweetness … and warm wishes to you on whatever you happen to be working on.

So glad you’re here.
