I absolutely love this (and you). The thing about you is that you’re the best superfan I know and I wish I could even be a tenth as supportive and awesome and brave and vulnerable and just…like wonderful as you are. You see the possibilities and potential in people. I am so, so grateful to know you. ❤️

Two very difficult words for humans are "No." and "Help." When we say, "No." we are protecting ourselves from too much overload or from a danger that could harm us. When we say, "Help." we are nurturing ourselves by opening ourselves up and inviting others into our circle of peace and safety. You were brave to step down from a position that did not nurture your spirit and you were brave by sharing some of your life with your readers; opening yourself up for love, compassion and understanding to flow into your circle of peace and comfort. This is from the Jewish Tale of the Angel Lailah: Just before we are sent to earth an Angel presses their finger to our lips, leaving a divot in the top lip, and says, "Shh. Don't tell what you know." This is my teaching: The angel then presses their finger to our solar plexus and starts the beat of our own drum. You keep marching to the beat of your own drum and the world will take notice, I know I did. March On!
