Seems like we're on the same journey - you on your path of re-invention, me on mine. Kinda cool, huh? I can't wait to see where you are going and what your new adventure will bring! Love, Peggy Hi Nadia!

I hear you about material items. We do not have much material items either and I love it. That is one reason why I refuse to own a home. A home just ties down a person and I rather have the freedom to move around. And I am happy that my comment about how hitting rock bottom makes it easier to jump off cliffs spoke to you. I have come to notice that those who have hit the worst and survived, usually do not mind taking chances. As for the re-invention, I am having the time of my life! Thank you for always being so supportive and so kind! Hi Joy,

I love that each time you share your story I learn so much from where you've been and who you are becoming. As far as happiness, I have very little in material terms but so much on every other level. For me, material bogs me down, gives me reasons to be attached; the less material I have the more creative and open I am in giving and sharing. You made an excellent point that I've never considered within my own life. When you have lots in your past, you have no fear because you've already hit bottom--perhaps that explains why I can and often do "jump"; I've been through "the worst" and recovered so any result from further jumps will only help me to grow and blossom. In life, when I have fear, I take a deep breath and face it. I now see why that seems "easier" for me than others. Thank you for helping me to see that. I am excited to see what your re-invention will form as. I know you will inspire others who may not have considered re-invention possible, to make changes within their own life. Thank you so much Nadia for all that you share! Nadia,

It is tricky little thing isn't it? Fear has such a smooth way of creeping in and keeping people stuck. Thank you so much for all the kind things you wrote about me. You made my afternoon! So thank YOU! :) Hi Tess,

Nothing keeps people more stuck than fear. And thank you so much for the support regarding the project I am working on. This is unlike anything I have ever done. I am having so much fun with it. It has been wonderful. I look forward to when everything is ready to be launched. Love and peace to you too, my friend! :) Hi Kaushik,

I really appreciate the support. :) Life sure is a wonderful journey and what you shared about not forgiving is another example of poison. We are capable of so much but things like fear and lack of compassion often keep us stuck. The sad part is that those things only have power because we give them that power. At least, that is what I have come to see and believe. Love and joy to you too! Hi Jan,

Fear is indeed the thing we must release. The funny thing about it is that it's completely delusional. I look forward to hearing more about your project. I'm sure it will be remarkable! love and peace, k Beautiful post!

I cannot wait to hear. It is obvious that you are full of life, love, and wisdom as you follow through, step by step. :-) And I greatly appreciate your analogy of fear as poison. I agree. It paralyzes us, weakens us, so we cannot live with full strength and the joie de vivre that we were intended to. I was just listening to a wonderful dharmaseed.org talk today where the speaker also used an analogy of not forgiving as personal poison and continuing to administer something harmful to ourselves by not healing from a particular hurt. Very powerful. Love and joy to you this day. And thank you Evita for hosting Nadia. She is an inspiration!
