This part especially resonated with me: "There are times when I want to pray; . . . Please let me return to fretting about survival issues instead of learning to trust that I am winning this bigger and far more interesting game. But the bigger game keeps beckoning. I am at the point of no return; the stakes are getting higher and higher." Your lovely site is such a blessing! May you be blessed today in Love! :) Namaste! ~Jen Wilma, I loved this pots!!

But the bigger game keeps beckoning.

Therefore I so appreciate that we can support each other because I know how much encouragement means to me. So thank you for you comment, it is a gift I appreciate very much.

I think this is the most helpful kind of sharing, because so much growth and spiritual writing doesn't address the real issues of what we face when trying to change. Change takes time - we have to rewire ourselves, emotionally, mentally, even physically. We are literally trying to create new neural-networks in our brain, new thought patterns and outlooks. So while the impulse towards change can be this sudden, beautiful, moment of insight and power, the execution of that often requires circling back, and doubting, and all of that. I commend you for sharing all of that with us. - lisa I love your honesty in these last two posts.

All I want to do right now is give you a huge hug back and letting you FEEL how much your comment means to me coming from you, my nature hero. There is no way that I could look altoghether, nature does not do that either and yet it is. I so hear you and I so would love for all of us to relax into who we ARE, not who we think we should be. Thinking who I should be is a game I will always lose and I am so grateful that I now realize that. However I cannot deny either where I am at. I have very astute daughters who won't let me get away with fake, so I better be authentic if I want to set a role model for them. But as the road we travel on is so unknown and unfamiliar I do sooo love the support and encouragement from adorable woman like you. Robin, lots of love to you too, my friend. Oh Robin.
