I love that you put it out there and showed your vulnerability.Now I have the song "Dream Big" by Ryan Shupe and The Rubberband playing in my head in response to what you wrote. Go listen to it, and dream big! Wow. I love that you put it out there and showed your vulnerability.

You are so amazing! If you can dream it you can do it. I have total faith that YOU can do ANYTHING! Selfish....no way not even maybe!! :) Sometimes that bit of time is so needed. As mothers and wives we give so much to everyone around us. When we take that time to ourselves we feel selfish. I have often felt that way myself when ever I take that kind of time. And you, you not only give your whole self to your family but you give pieces of yourself to everyone around you. I don't know how you do it, but I'm so glad you do. Go for it all!! No limits!! And take that time every once in awhile...you not only deserve it but you NEED it!! Love you! XOXOX :) Behind you all the way! You are so amazing! If you can dream it you can do it.

I'm sure i'll figure it out later. the main thing that is sooo hard is that i just didn't read much over the summer and the day you left dc is when i found out you were here. not that i had the money to take the workshop anyway, but i would have found it somewhere. i spent the whole week beating myself up for missing the workshop...for missing the opportunity of a lifetime...for not being better in touch and realizing you and brian were coming here. I was sooo mad at myself. then i realized something..that if i was meant to be there i would have been...that God is in charge and knows what i need when and will help me be in the right place at the right time. It inspired me to get to my to do list and get things done. and PAY ATTENTION! I am so moved by the way you pour your heart out to all of us, thank you. You WILL realize your dreams, God will make sure of that. You will be an even bigger inspiration to more and more people to follow the authentic-ness that God puts in all of us and don't settle for...God bless;-) me re~ thanks so much for your candid post, it has hit me somehow, more than i know.

Amen. Amen. Amen. You have an amazing way with words. And it describes right where I am at too. I just had a crying on the floor moment last week and it has driven me to do better. To organize more. To be determined to reach my goal . . . no matter how far out it is. I am a third grade teacher. I am a mother of two baby girls. I am the breadwinner. But in my heart, I am a photographer. My dream is to be a professional photographer. To understand the ins and outs of my camera. To reach in my bag and grab anything I need. And to provide images to my clients (and for my family) that will be timeless. I have a long ways to go. But your blog inspires me so. Thank you for sharing. I look forward to the day I can see your first episode. I only pray that before then I can afford a workshop with you. That would be life changing for me. Keep it up. And keep listening to the voice within as the tears come. It will keep you close to your role as a mother and a woman who inspires so many. I'm sending you a link that has inspired me to keep creating . . . enjoy: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RhLlnq5yY7k&feature=PlayList&p=31B2384C7C470214&playnext=1&playnext_from=PL&index=1 Oh Me Rah.

I read your blog yesterday and thought about it all day. It is comforting to know that there is at least one woman out there, even in my own city, that has the same feelings that I get. It did make me want to offer a listening ear to you while you were hurting, but I guess that is what we are all doing on the blog. I too am going through shifts in my life and because of the changes in the economy my husband and I are closing down a church we have had for ten years. I am trying to get beyond the fear of what is next for us as a family. If we don't move forward then we can't know what more blessings are to come. I have not had the tears over this change yet, but I know they will come soon, and I will think of you and know, I am not alone.

I really could just end the this comment right there with enough said. However, I will go on a little just to bring it home a bit more. You have so much talent, a love of life, you are a role model for moms and women in general, and that you so generously open you life to others you just ROCK. Me Ra,

It's just so darn refreshing to know that you have these moments too. Know that you and your family are in my prayers. Those who dream big achieve big. You know what you were meant for. Keep striving for it and know that you will make it work for your family, just as you always have. You know that your family comes first, that's clear from everything you taught us at your workshop. You will do what's right for yourself and them. And if it's not right at the outset, it's so obvious that you will make the right changes to make it work and to maintain the proper priorities. I can't wait to see where your dreams take you. xo A This post is just so honest and heartfelt. It’s just so darn refreshing to know that you have these moments too.
