Thank you for the encouragement and support :)! And really, what's the rush? It's better to wait until we're aligned, as you say, so that blogging feels more like a reward than a punishment!

And really, what’s the rush? It’s better to wait until we’re aligned, as you say, so that blogging feels more like a reward than a punishment!

In fact, I had wanted to start a blog for about 3 years before I took Havi's course. Some things just take time - the stars need to align, or we need to align, or something. Looking forward to reading your blog, whenever you are ready! @Natalia – It *is* scary to start it, but I promise it gets less scary (even though it does stay difficult at times – for other reasons!).

LOL I am about to start a blog. I almost did yesterday. And last week. And maybe the week before, too. Very. Scary. Good for you for jumping in ^_^ I hope to join you soon. “And all of that thinking left my creativity more blocked than an intestine after eating an entire three-cheese pizza.”

I had been on an extended hiatus until I read Havi's blogging stuff. She is absolutely right....do your thing for YOU. Great stuff. Keep it coming.

I am honored that mine was your first blog AND your first comment. It is a strange thing to reveal all this privateness to the interwebs, but there is something about it that offers more release than just journaling for myself. Maybe it's more satisfying because it becomes clearer that we are all connected, and as you said, "[coming] from the same place we're all going to." @Elena – Ah my sweet Rainy.

You couldn't help but make it elegant. We need to have a solid ego before even looking at losing it, or they go hand in hand, so suck up the glory and let it motivate you to be even stronger/more vulnerable.

I don't say this to discourage you, I say this to give you hope that these feelings are often the driving force (and to "share in all the messiness" with you!). If they weren't there, most of us would have nothing to blog about. But then again, I think you already knew that. "And that tells me that if I stop chasing it, the healing stops, too." You nailed it right on the head! I can't wait to read more "realness" from you!! I’ve been blogging since August ‘06 and I feel like I’m exactly where you are today!
