RESPONSE

....and I can't help but want to reach out and hug her and hold her face in the palms of my hand for saying this to my last blog, Ebb and Flow:

as alice walker says, its the absolute trust in the goodness of the earth. that whatever is, is. god/godess/shiva/buddha/earth mother, will not let you down or leave you to fall. its about having courage and being brave to look at yourself back in the mirror with loving tenderness. its about realising that those that love you, will hurt you. and, hurt is part of every day living. that people will do what they know and how they know how to do until they know better. its about letting go. its about the walk of faith. its about crying in the night and smiling in the morning. its about loving hard and being humble. its all about love.

Thank you, girl. I feel so fortunate to "know" you. This is a cut and paste to keep in the journal for sure.

Now That's Worth Writing Down

When we let Spirit lead us, it is impossible to know where we are being lead. All we know, all we can believe, all we can hope is that we are going home. That wherever Spirit takes us is where we live.....Alice Walker, Absolute Trust in the Goodness of the Earth.
