I can’t believe how much this post relates to me this week. You started off your post talking about what our bodies are telling us. That happened to me loud and clear this week. So much so, I had to go to the doctor because I felt my body was screaming out to me to stop. Now I’ve made the decision to stop and I’m scared. I’m scared what people will say about me at work (as I feel I’ve left them in the lurch)…but then I read the comment about being true to yourself and it just dawned on me that I am doing just that. For the first time ever that I can remember, I am being true to myself. I have ignored myself for so long, that now, I realize I need to listen and be true to myself. I can only hope that people will understand. I can’t deny it any longer. I can’t just keep doing what people say is the right thing anymore. It’s not working for me.
Thanks for your blog and your writing. You are much braver than I am. Your writing is honest and heartfelt.

Joni is a fabulous starting and ending point for this entry. I enjoyed reading this so much because it parallels many of the struggles I’m going through in my own mind. Thank you, as always, for sharing.

Hi Christine,
I agree with Kelly, your sense of style in your writing is wonderful and I love your thought processes, I never tire of reading about them.
As far as your dilemma is concerned I am very intrigued! What is this mystery business opportunity??
There is cause and affect in everything we do and whatever decisions we make they will always have an impact on our relationships, be they personal or business ones. For me the most important questions are these: Which path allows me to stay true to myself? Which will give me the most sense of achievement and personal fulfilment?
You will be the best partner you can be if you feel happy with who you are and whole within. The best path is that which leads to that place of inner peace and balance. This doesn’t necessarily mean that it is the smoothest path!
But don’t take this from me, I have not yet found this path because I get too distracted by all the lovely coffee houses on the way where I like to stop and linger
Take care, Kerstin
