Dear Joyce,

Your post really resonated with my soul today! The way you say things makes me smile like 'circling the drain'. I love reading everything your write. Keep writing!! But it's the Renee Brown quote "Courage over comfort" that was my 'thank you'. It described my adventurous 'leadership role' as elected chair of a Board that truly needed a model of leadership with love, gratitude, courage and right action. And now I can say, we are ending my year, with harmony, respect restored, problem solving committees exploring what needed to be fixed and fixing it. This is just the first step and now we can move forward to begin the true work of a board in a world that needs us. Thank you!

Joyce, I am so happy to have found you, a kindred soul... I feel. I ponder these thoughts of life, gratitude, purpose, etc. Regarding vulnerability in CREATING our lives (I do think of each choice I make is a decision to cultivate what I want or don't want to be in my universe), I recently shared this video:
