It's nice to meet you, Carmen. I love the colours you use in your
artwork. Nice website;)

I love this, “my only duty to you is to love what I do,” it expresses exactly the way I want to create my life and my (to-be) career. Reading that is so inspiring to me. Thank you.

Thank you for the heartfelt and revealing response, Michelle. I
appreciate knowing I'm not the only one still perplexed by this
strange new web land.

Oh thank you. You speak my truth (in your words, of course.) I struggle with this regularly, though some of the nuances are different. The roller coaster of online life is crazy. The feedback both exciting and demoralizing, all in an instant of new information.

Just spent all last night talking about this with my husband. Finding the right way to be a part of this “world” I do enjoy – at times – and still keep its right place in the mix of my life. It is a struggle when your soul-inspired work has a meaningful place here online, too. As yours does. And mine.

I appreciate when you share your thoughts with us – and I totally get it when you don't.

Thank you, Deborah. You are so right, I am responsible for what I
create for myself. And it's important for that to take precedence over
what I feel I 'should' create for others.

And thank you, Jan, for the amazing support and for the great
affirmation that you feel the same way. It's so nice to know that I'm
not crazy and that these changes and realizations will bring the
freedom I desire.

I'd kind of got into the habit of thinking that, as I have a blog, I'd be letting my readers and myself down if I didn't post at least 2-3 times a week. I recently gave myself permission to only post when I had got excited about writing, or was struck by a creative idea. I feel creatively set free as a result. You can see, therefore, why your post resonated very strongly. Thank you, Tara, once again, for being a great role model!

Good for you. At the end of the day we are all responsible for what we create for ourselves. So I say, create away.

Oh Nathalie! *hug* I'm so glad you see the value in disconnecting too.
You're inspiring in how you find balance in your life and work. You
are connected, yet creative and grounded, it's admirable. Thank you
for being so clear on what you want and who you are.
