this week my sisters in SouLodge participated in a 'giveaway,' passing on something special to the woman next in the circle. I was so excited to slap on my stamp and send off my soul medicine for another sister, that I completely forgot that something was coming to me as well! And oh goodness, it is beautiful. The sweet and beautiful Lea, from the group, sent me gorgeous prayer ties:
one for me, for the hubby, and for our baby we'd like to meet some day soon.
The letter she tucked inside the package shared similar experiences,
and was filled with love and encouragement.
In other words, I bawled my head off.
Sincerely. Big, ugly sobs with the snot and mascara down to my chin.
She had tucked in a few other gifts that were so spot on for what I needed-
I'm keeping them as my own private soul medicine- and they are doing their work!
I can't stress how loved I feel by her thoughtfulness, and her willingness to share with me her own story.
thank you soulodge sister. I sincerely and completely love you, and I'm so grateful for your gifts.
this moment will be with me for a long time.
(and if you haven't heard of prayer ties, look into it! It is a beautiful tradition- wrapping individual prayers to hang.
And as I have discovered this week, it's a beautiful gift!)
In other news, I'm so glad to hear the positive feedback about my news the other day!
I was nervous announcing the e-course, with the nature of the subject,
but you ladies helped give me the reinforcement I needed!
Thank. You. Much!

Gorgeous tradition, and a nice big sob you didn't realise you had tucked away is always better out. Snot'n all.
