Your story is an important one. Following your passion and desire to share it will be a gift to you as you find healing through writing, and will speak to others who, realizing they are not alone, will find the courage and strength to change their paths too. This is how we change the world.Linda Hoyehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07108942679111115857noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579428337312019684.post-1476326978792570942013-02-24T08:19:36.329-08:002013-02-24T08:19:36.329-08:00Thank you!!Thank you!!Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17613461602324493218noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1579428337312019684.post-31932486388279418252013-02-24T05:28:30.078-08:002013-02-24T05:28:30.078-08:00Love this!

And the fact that you're willing to join her in these games no matter when or where you are is peaks volumes for your own sense of self and understanding of what's really important in life.
