I just wanted you to know I am aligned with leaving this comment because it feels good.

Nice post! I totally agree, doing something that doesn’t always feel good while doing it often feels good after having done it.

As Martha Beck quoted to me, “no one wants to write, everyone wants to have written.”

Oh Carol ( wasn’t that a song! ) you’ve made me a bit blurry eyed too.
We don’t realise the impact we often have on others. I’ve had a bit of a pants day today, but dropping by and reading what you’ve written has made me realise that my world stretches well beyond my nearest circumstances. NO – thank you Carol.

Carol, WOW!! You just made me teary eyed. Thank you for this wonderful, wonderful, gracious, beautiful and touching note and for all the appreciation you’re sending our way.

When some of my posts don’t get a discussion going, I wonder if it was any good or if it helped at all but then I read comments like yours and know it’s my purpose and passion to write, and whether someone comments or not, if even one person reads it and benefits, I’ve done what I’m called to do – inspire and motivate people to live their best lives ever!

And that is a gift in itself. Wow today ends 29giftsin29days and I’m being given gifts all around. First this post from you and then won 2 tix to a seminar featuring (amongst others) Michael Port at the Art of Sales, valued at $800

Yknow what though? Your gift is the precious one. Thank you from the depths of my heart.

And thank you for letting all of us benefit from your wisdom and insights as much as you do from ours. We ALL have something powerful to offer and I appreciate you stepping into the limelight to share what only YOU can You’re an important member of this community!

MissyB, never underestimate the difference you are making in others’ lives . . . even if it isn’t acknowledged.

For a couple of years, I “lurked” on the goodvibeblog.com site, reading every single article and every single comment, but never commenting (because I didn’t feel like I had anything of value to add).

The number of AHA! moments I’ve had would astound you! What I have learned from you, Jeannette, Tia, Kim, Iyabo, Erik, and all of the others, has been invaluable in my life. You guys have offered so many different perspectives for me and opened me up to a whole different way of life. You’ve helped me to come to know myself and understand the law of attraction (amongst other things).

I see the world through completely different eyes. In turn, I have been able to share what I have learned with others. But you and the others never knew that the stones you were throwing into the pond (wisdom you were throwing out there) were making the ripples (changing the lives of others so dramatically) that they were. People that you will never meet are benefiting from your wisdom.

It reminds me of the saying “Anyone can count the seeds in an apple, but only God can count the number of apples in a seed.” Where does one person’s influence end? How many others are there out there that are benefiting from your knowledge and wisdom that you’ll never know about? And they are passing it on to others . . . who are passing it on to others . . .

To all of you, I am a better person because of you and the wisdom you have shared. Thank you . . . thank you . . . thank you!
