Comment on Elizabeth from Chowchilla, CA by nereaffof

It seems essential to try to find some meaning to life and I guess Jungian philosophy is the one that’s helped me understand myself and the world more than anything else.

Comment on Never too late for a compliment. by Leah Virsik

Ahhh Lauren, thanks so much for the mention! You remind me how important it is to say what’s on one’s mind and the value of appreciation. I am excited to be connected with you. I love the idea of a collaboration. I haven’t done a lot of that but it does sound intriguing.

Comments from other people are interesting. I’m reminded that people’s comments tend to be more about themselves than the person they are directing the comment to.

I value people’s comments/critique in that it gives me new eyes. It helps me see in a way that I might not. Although, it generally does tend to influence me, which isn’t always a bad thing…just something I notice.

Hi Jen! Sorry, your comment was buried under a bunch of spam! I am glad I found it. Tom and I had such a great time getting to know you and your family more over the summer. We are already trying to figure out a way for it to happen each year! Tell Paige to send me her favorite photo of Sugar and I will paint it for her!

Was touched to see pics of the girlies from our WONDERFUL trip. BTW- Paige has picked out a picture for you to paint for her– of Sugar!!
Love that we spent our vacation with you- I was able to find healing from many years of hurt – in a short time that was full of love and acceptance. Thank you for being part of my journey….

Hey Tracy, YES! I have seen “Billy’s Balloon” and I absolutely love love love it. A bit of a different twist on a balloon story (:

Hiya Sue! Wind is a very important thing to consider and will be playing a very big role in this story in just a few pages.

This looks like a nice day. I wonder what she’d do if the wind was gusting and she had to hold on tight to prevent the wind from stealing the balloon away.

I feel a little sadistic suggesting this, but have you seen Hertzfeld’s animated short, “Billy’s Balloon”?
