You DID! It was this bit:<BR/><BR/>I'm going to live from the very center of my heart--and, from that place, I'm going to move forward.<BR/><BR/>You answered the question I asked without even knowing it. I want to join you - from the bottom of my heart. I too want a new job, new house, and finished piece of writing. To get there while living this way would be a dream come true - how do you ALWAYS KNOW??!??!<BR/><BR/>I missed you!meghanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06041527732133374839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7352133.post-87610980102081274652007-07-26T17:50:00.000-05:002007-07-26T17:50:00.000-05:00Jessie,I was touched by both of your last two post...Jessie,<BR/><BR/>I was touched by both of your last two posts. I think you are more self-critical of your writing than others are; as a regular reader of your blog, I didn't notice the "unbridled optimism" being excessive. We are all moody as women, and our moods change from moment to moment, but your posts are always moving and never provoke me to do anything close to "gagging"! I find it exciting and encouraging to see that other women are just like me and vacillate between highs and lows :)<BR/><BR/>Love and blessings, OliviaOliviahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06058356843151306428noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7352133.post-16145023899833592752007-07-26T11:38:00.000-05:002007-07-26T11:38:00.000-05:00You sound like you are coming from a true honest p...You sound like you are coming from a true honest place, from your higher self. You are listening to you...I can tell. Doesn't it feel good? <BR/>Ask the universe for the house. Hold the image in your mind. Then release the wanting. It is not your job to figure out all the details of the How, your job is to receive. I know it is easier said than done, but I do believe it works.<BR/><BR/>Love you my friend!!!<BR/><BR/>XO,<BR/>MelbaMelanie Margarethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07124900253892141834noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7352133.post-33022086155154421002007-07-26T11:34:00.000-05:002007-07-26T11:34:00.000-05:00sounds like a great way to live life, if you ask m...sounds like a great way to live life, if you ask me. i went straight through school (although it took more years for my BA and MA than it "should" have -- seems like i'm in a pattern here, huh), but quite honestly, i have regretted not taking a few years off in my 20s to just travel and see the world and learn new things. hopefully, that's what my 30s are for, once i finish this da** phd. i'm happy for you, jessie. things will fall into place for you soon enough. :)<BR/>~rubyAnonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7352133.post-47435593776672833392007-07-26T11:27:00.000-05:002007-07-26T11:27:00.000-05:00I see you in your new housepainting and writing an...I see you in your new house<BR/>painting and writing and <BR/>chasing your dogs out into the<BR/>yard.<BR/><BR/>I see me visiting your lovely new<BR/>house and bringing you a plant.<BR/><BR/>And i see this happening soon -<BR/>in the next few months.<BR/><BR/>so there.madelynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/10602912449241639436noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7352133.post-53210993144415405132007-07-26T09:03:00.000-05:002007-07-26T09:03:00.000-05:00I'm sitting here, bursting with happiness for you....I'm sitting here, bursting with happiness for you.
