Or did I leave Blissdom with a beginning? I think I just might have! Thru a group of amazing sisters I found a new belief in myself. The artistic voice I have inside of me is important - a gift from God, and needs to be shared. I once again found the strength to believe that despite the pitfalls, life is beautiful still. Everywhere I looked - I found inspiration. Inspiration not by accident. Imagine being surrounded by 699 women (a shout out to a couple of men) who believe in you with absolutely no prejudices?

That is my Blissdom. It was awesome, wonderful, super, encouraging, supportive, open, allowable, revealing, insightful, educational, hugging, peaceful, crazy, and a gift.

ReplyDeleteYay! I'm so gladi met you at blissdom! I seriously think of you now I the mornings when I'm doing my Devon's. I look around and wonder , "where's Heather?" (I also wonder where the waterfall is and wonder why it isn't in my living room either. ) I know we only talked for moments each morning, but I feel so connected to you and I'm so looking forward to staying in touch with you. You have such a wam and caring heart.

Heather, I can't tell you how nice it is to read that I am not the only one coming close to walking the edge of saddness after Blissdom. . . it is like being deflated.
ReplyDeleteBut I have to tell you that you simply made my weekend when you introduced yourself to me. It makes it all worth it to know that we connected!
It was lovely having lunch with you at Blissdom. You're ahead of me, I still haven't found time to post about it yet! I look forward to following you as you continue to exercise and strengthen your 'voice'...
