Finding My Voice

I've written a whole bunch of paragraphs on this subject this morning. And deleted them all before posting.

This, I think, is meaningful.

I suspect that finding my voice is going to be an important part of both my yoga teacher training and in my life.

If I were you, I'd find my voice, THEN buy a phone.

But seriously, folks. Don't delete that stuff. Keep plugging away, and share what you put down. The voice will manifest itself.

I saw something you posted very early the other day and then it was gone. It was about transition, and that memoir.When it was gone, I missed it. Noticed it was gone. I'm no literary critic but I'm a reader who noticed something good was missing. That's something, right?
The hardest stuff to put out there is the best stuff.

Hey JWC, thanks for noticing. I have no way to contact you privately, but there is a back story there, a reason I had second thoughts and pulled that post. And it does tie in to being silenced, and also to finding my voice.

Complicated, this tension between putting it all out there, and maintaining boundaries. Between caretaking others and taking care of oneself.....

I hear you; it's like a barbed-wire fence, those boundaries.
I sent (or tried to send) my email earlier to what I thought was yours.
