As always your writing is beautiful and profoundly authentic and you articulated many things that have run through my own mind the past few years and this year in particular. I feel like my own feelings have been given voice. Thank you so much!<br /><br />TracyDiamondLilhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16181410504023175296noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5854241370473188657.post-33046446422984260522013-11-18T17:30:42.236-08:002013-11-18T17:30:42.236-08:00I have it, but I haven't read it.

Sometimes, behind the glitter, we get a load of more universe than we're used to, which is mostly empty and can give us the jumps. Then a teacher is helpful.
