I don't know about this woman, but Dave, you are certainly in some of the stories in my head, as I try to live forward in a more mindful gentle way, and to understand my own life backwards. <br />When the critical voices are pushing me downward into my chair, I hear 'doing the damns the darkness", followed by my own voice reminding me that 'this day won't carpe itself, better get my butt up out of the kitchen chair and get going." It is kinder than my own voice used to be...and the critics get the message very quickly...as soon as my own voice begins to speak. <br /><br />clairesmumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/12235828110880302069noreply@blogger.com
