The Birthday: 30

When I sit back and reflect upon the past 30 years, I feel that I have indeed accomplished a lot more than I originally thought. I've survived through many difficult situations and I've enjoyed all of the good times to my best ability. I've realized, however, that time truly is not of the essence; just the here and now. I've learned that there is no controlling the future or changing the past, which I believe is something that eventually happens to everyone if they truly awaken to their lives and who they are. "Knowing yourself deeply has nothing to do with whatever ideas are floating around in your mind. Knowing yourself is to be rooted in Being, instead of lost in your mind." E. Tolle ~ A New Earth

A new chapter has begun in the book of my life and I hope that I will be able to share with you my experiences of this journey of awakening through my writing.

Thank you to all of you who have supported me through the years. Your kindness and generosity are greatly appreciated.

With love and peace,
Lissa
