I have been reading your writing ever since I can remember and each time I read a new piece I am moved and more fulfilled with your words. You melt my heart with everything you say forever and always! You are so talented and you are always touching people through your amazing words. I know you have changed my life and I am sure you are touching so many others. Please always stay true to yourself, pick up and move and change whenever you see fit becasue it works for you! You have changed so much in this month and the change is amazing. Our generations of past have closed themselves off and locked themselves away, living in fear of being judged and I am here to tell you OUR generation is here to change that! We are here to live out loud and share everything about ourselves but I agree cut the small talk because we need more! Keep up the amazing work and know I will always be inspired by YOU!!! Lo!

Like you, I knew what I wanted to do by 8th grade. I was born curious about everything and everyone around me. I'm pretty sure it was predestined that I become a psychologist! This is what I do and have done effortlessly and joyfully for 30 years ( yikes I'm way older than I feel!) What stirs me up are: neglected and/or abused kids, movie "talkers", disingenuous chit chat, jeans that don't zip, the absence of spirit, imagination and gratitude ,AND highway drivers on cellphones! This is my short list. I love, in no particular order: stories (real or fabricated) that make me laugh till it hurts, Martin Buber's I and Thou, the arts,anything that activates my senses,old friends,new friends,San Francisco, junk food, the wonder of little kids AND getting to know YOU through your writing!!!! Good things are worth waiting for....... LOL All about me…..abridged.

You're settling into your new life and are now looking for additional ways to experience the fullness of purpose. You know your passion - impacting others through words. And you do it very well. I am proud of you. As you settle in, my advice is to stay in the present; take time to watch this life you've created unfold. And you're right...it is both....and interchangeable and you can even do both at the same time ifnyawanna. As far as the 'closed-down-ness' of society, you can only affect your world, the people you contact, but each of them can tell two people and so on....and then the ripple affect and viola! the world is open again and all caring and sharing!!

You got me thinking. What makes me tick? It would be the obvious answer to say my family, children and husband, but I think that is an easy out. I love helping others, and fixing something that is broken and putting it back together. Whether it be a bandaid and a kiss, or a shoulder to lean on, my passion in life is helping others fix what needs to be mended. I am certainly no writer, and I highly doubt anyone would read what I would write about, but I love your blog and it has inspired me to start a journal. Thank you!! Hmmm… You got me thinking.

I don't know what it is yet, but I have a need to do something worthwhile and influential. Something that'll have a huge impact. Who knows. :D And a lot of people are definitely closed off. No one knows what anyone's really like, and this makes it so hard for me to trust anyone. But I do enjoy trying to figure people out. I've been getting fairly decent at reading people, and everyone is always interesting. I want to do something worth writing.
