		<description>Man, you have a way of getting inside my heart and inching around all up in there and telling me over and over again to just listen to my heart already. I'm definitely on my way there, still taking steps each day to move toward the life I believe I am meant to live . . . but there are still voices in there that say the Big Dreams, the Ones That Keep Me Up At Night . . . those dreams are too big for me and I don't deserve them and nobody would even care and they would probably laugh their heads off anyway. 

But here you are, admitting your dream and just going for it, learning from the mistakes along the way. Why don't we give ourselves more permission to do that? Why do we feel such a pressure to do things perfectly or not do them at all? 

I'm still learning to take courage. I'm not fully there yet, but I'm paying attention.</description>

		<description>I'm so glad I found you and this space.  I feel like I have the support of all these invisible souls who feel that same lovely strangness that I feel.  I have been denying what my heart has been telling me for the longest time, because it wasn't sensible or logical or practical in the eyes of others.  Well you know what, who the hell cares what they think?  F-them!  I AM brave and I AM enough and I AM amazing.  And because of you and everyone here...I'm not alone.</description>

		<description>Thank you...just, thank you. 
I have graduated with a master's degree in a career that doesn't fully define me. Your post made me realize that there is no shame in leaving it behind me and finding out who I really am.</description>

		<description>My dear what you have done over this summer has been a dream of mine also.  I never could put it together as well as you, in fact it is still a jumble in my mind.  I always wanted to have a camp where children could come together, be authentic, be accepted, explore there creativity, learn about the enviorment and what surrounds them, and develop a stronger sense of self esteem while helping others and spreading love and joy.  I feel you actually put into action what I have wanted to do in my heart.  I admire your courage for just going for it and putting yourself out there.  I am curious how you developed your wings and started to fly.  You are a true inspiration to me!  Thank you so much for feeling so comfortable to share this with us.</description>
