BearsMountain: Crooked Fine

August 15, 2008

Crooked Fine

I had a dream last night. I don't remember the dream, but I know I awoke today in a fog of hazy crazy warm fuzziness.
I have butterflies in the pit of my stomach.
I feel change.
The hope of future happiness is lurking just around the corner.
I have started to toddle along on my path, in jerky baby-like steps. I'm moving forward, and this is wonderful.
It astonishes me that it has taken over a year of pouring out my heart and soul into this blog, to feel like I'm ready to embark upon my journey.
The promise of what is to come, takes my breath away. I am breathless. This is a feeling I want to get used to.

Peace,
OC

Good on you! We all wear authenticity well. I do believe taking care of oneself is where generosity begins and that energy extends outward to change those around you and the world.

Sacrifice is not part of the equation and it is not what children or partners (healthy ones) really want.

So I'll stop my cheerleading and simply say.

Let the force be with you!

(consider reading the book "Life Is A Verb" it just came out and is excellent, the author has the blog 37 days...also inspiring).
