I later realised that even with this correction I was still over charged by 1p. Not a big deal in itself, but when you have been struggling for months to find a job, it is easy to get bogged down with the small things. This made me realise that in order to progress, it is these small things you need to take care of first and everything else falls into place. Hi Jen,

How I navigated to this wonderful spot is beyond me, because this was not my intended goal or location, your blog/website, and clearly no accident I'm here. It's not even close to what I should have found (when I thought I was in control of the destination-chuckle) While on one hand I recognize the powerful and influential side of my personality, I too, also hide. Perhaps my fear is really being afraid of the the potential power that is capable of happening if I didn't hide or "keep the lid on it." I hope that makes sense. I'm not a writer, and now in the evolution of my second career I have to write, and have been hiding behind that as well. So...I suppose I deviated from your original question...what will I do? For me, I will begin to write from my heart. That will be a large step for my small footprint. Thank you for your transparent and truthful honesty. I will practice the same.

What is with this? I think I feel as though I am able to be thoughtful, and erase, and back-up, and delete some more, until it looks really good in written form. And with my voice, I some times find it difficult to express my intense and amazing desires and wishes. I read your note earlier, and decided I would, at a meeting with my doula sisters today, not only deeply listen, but express myself and make nourishing navigations thorugh the land of "Can you give us more...??? And oh yes, we don't want you to charge any money.... and oh yes, it is going to take a lot of your time and energy. So when will you sign up?" Anyway, I was able to navigate the needs with empowerment and strength, stay grounded, speak from my heart is a really open and positive way, and bring the group out of a place of suffering (that quagmire meetings sometimes get into - the rant) to a place of forward motion. I felt I was able to express my need for boundaries and not over-commit. All in all, it felt delicious...!!! Thank you !! with love and blessings, m. Ahh… hiders of the world, UNITE! :0)
