* Title: Dirty Dancing – Time of my Life… We saw the writing on the wall, as we felt this magical fantasy… Now with passion in our eyes, there’s no way we could disguise it secretly…
If this isn’t the best last scene of any movie ever made, then I don’t know what is 😉 DIRTY DANCING FOREVER!
Lovecats, I just want to thank you for always being so kind when I put myself out there and write from the heart with so much honesty… Even I cringe sometimes, knowing how vulnerable it makes me. And you’re always there with open arms to hug me virtually.
And then something magical happens that I’ll never get used to: I start getting comments and emails and DMs and personal messages on all my social channels from women who are going through similar situations and either have found a little guidance, maybe are seeking more of it, or even just settle, knowing that someone else is going through the same thing as they are. I may not always respond to comments, but I always respond to personal messages on any platform {unless I miss them somehow}. When you guys reach out to me to tell me I’ve inspired you or helped you in any teeny tiny way, it literally makes my heart fill with joy and little love bubbles rush from my feet up to my heart and head. I become the heart eyed emoji and want to explode with happiness.
I think that’s something we all forget when we’re protecting ourselves from being too vulnerable -creatively and in our everyday lives- afraid that somebody’s going to take our pain and somehow make it worse, but by sharing our stories, we help each other and we help the universal flow of love. I think that’s rather magical.
I rarely feel like what I’m doing is courageous or brave or strong, I just do what feels right intuitively and go with it. Sometimes I fall, sometimes I soar. I’m so grateful to all of you for being part of my journey in one way or another. We’ve been sharing this internet space for nearly ten years together, and it feels like a second home, a friendship and a party all unto itself and it makes me happy that I finally feel like I can really be in this space again, filling up every inch of it with creativity, love, passion, and honesty. There is no other way. <3
Happy Friday Lovecats! Muah!
