A Fond Farewell for Now

Dear Friends,

As you may know from visiting this blog now and then, I have been wildly busy with new creative projects and ventures.

These fill my heart with passion, yet take a tremendous amount of energy.

So in the spirit of extraordinary self-care, living mindfully—with self-compassion at the core—I've decided to (at least for now) minimize my blogging.

I have so loved journeying with you here.

Each of you faithful readers has become such a treasured part of my online experience. And many of you have become real "soul friends."

You are the blessing of blogging ...

You have been a blessing to me ...

So I bow to you—Gassho—a deep Taoist bow of deep respect and reverence and thanks for you ...

for your journey ...

for all you are ...

and all you will become.
  

For now, if you wish to stay in touch, please visit me 

here — I have re-instituted my blog at my website: awakenedliving.com

Or here, the heart of where my new projects can be found.



May love prevail always ... in all ways for you and within you.

With metta,

Jan

I bow to you Jan in gratitude for the time, energy and heart you put into this blog.

In sharing blessed insights and inspiration, you yourself became a blessing.

As you give more attention to your other projects, I hope you make time to refill your well and refuel you passion.

Love to you.

Here is where I first found you, a blessing and a journey as I've witnessed and shared the growth of your new projects blossoming. I continue to be drawn to your spirit of mindfulness and self-care. Inspiring, loving, gentling - I am blessed to have found you and will continue to enjoy your gracious sharings and enlightening teachings.

Hi Jan .. I shall miss you and wished I'd participated a bit more - I love your calmness and gentleness that comes over .. let alone your wise spiritual words ..

Good luck with all your projects and I'll keep in touch via awakened living ..

Will your meditation month lessons be there - by chance? One day I'd like to follow through with those ..

With love and thoughts .. Hilary
