I just wanted to thank you for being so honest. Everyday we all wear masks hiding from… everyone else? ourselves? Even in the blog world I can sense the masks at times. Maybe even more so in a blog because who can confront you? – of course the only one we fool is ourselves. I adore books and as comforting as they are, I find the deeper I search for my own truth, I long to see examples in the flesh – a breathing person willing to strip away their layers and be vulnerable to the world. Scary and freeing. If we all lifted our veils we would see how similiar we all are, how connected we all are. I appreciate your strength and courage. You are creating a (a much needed) standard of an authentic life.

I saw my very FIRST shooting star a couple of weekends ago…and it thrilled me (especially when I saw the second one). We, too, watched some bees buzzing around lavender bushes this weekend. Personally, I think nature is the best anti-depressant. I, too, am constantly searching for answers…but what I’ve learned in my first 50 years is that the more answers I reach, the more I realize how much more there is to know. And I take great comfort in that. I hope I never stop peeling the layers of this onion…and just like real onions, this one often makes me cry…when I dig down deeper and peel away another layer. But, oh, the sweet relief I feel knowing that it means there’s one less layer preventing me from truly experiencing all of the world’s beauty.
