Lovely post, Jess! ‘We’re quirky. We have baggage. We are eccentric.’ – yes! Guilty!! Human as charged.

I love that, despite the shelves and shelves of self-help books, and the big money shelled out for therapy, Wikipedia can manage to sum up fear so concisely! And that, if we can just bring a little bit of light to those small, dark corners that still scare us, using simple consciousness and loving attention, we can perhaps transform some of the major gunk that really bogs us down in life. Live on Purpose, indeed!

I love the video you posted – have you seen the Ashes and Snow project? I think you would really dig it! There’s also a lovely folksy song by Mary Chapin Carpenter, Why Walk When You Can Fly!

Well-written. Pursuing valued living regardless of the fears &negative thoughts being carried resonates with my own approach.
