Kris Prochaskas book, Life Well Spoken, is one of those books that I highlighted more often than notI might as well have highlighted the entire thing! As I read this powerfully honest book about how we all really need to be living our fullest lives, I laughed out loud, nodded along, and was deeply impacted. Kriss sassy style is engaging and purely authentic. It is going on my list as one of my most quotable books!

Acknowledgments

This afternoon I went for a walk. The sun was out at 4:30 p.m. four days before Thanksgiving. The mountains have snow while here in town its cold and dry. Im living in my dream town with people I love dearly. I am doing what I came here to do in this lifetime and I love it. I am healthy and fit. I have people in my life who are smart, talented, successful and deeply spiritual. I am blessed.

I inhaled the smell of juniper, sage, pine needles and crisp fallen leaves. The beauty of this place and the path that brought me here still takes my breath away daily. Every tear shed, every challenge, every choice that didnt sit well with others, every experience that clarified who I am and every interaction with others who are living in harmony with their Inner Voice, (or not) influenced me in some way. Within the enormity of this appreciation and birds eye view I had this afternoon, of the past, and of the scenery before me. It was so easy, and felt so natural to think: Oh, thank you God for all of this. Im so grateful.

God got me, right away. No words were necessary. Words can be clumsy and awkward, way too limited for the feeling I was experiencing. My heart was bursting to full and I could feel so much excitement, anticipation, and loveboth for the possibility of this project and my ideas for sharing it with you all, and for the sunset experience I was having in the moment. I felt, and feel, infinite gratitude and appreciation for my family, for my friends, for the people who contributed to this project, for the people whom I have yet to meet and serve, and those for whom I am already blessed to serve.

Then, later sitting here attempting to capture on paper those bodily feelings of warmth, grace, potential and possibility, Love, gratitude, deep knowing of Truth, and absolute faith that all is well, no matter what, I wondered, How do I convey that to my family, my friends, contributors, editors, coaches, and colleagues? Listing names with a thank you in front seemed paltry compared to recognizing who you truly are. Its easy for me to say thank you to God when Im alone in nature. But when God comes through other people, through my lover, my children, my friends, my family, through you listener, and you, reader (I can feel you all); sometimes I am so blown away by the intimacy of it, the presence of the Divine in you, that I lose my ability to speakI feel so humble and overwhelmed at once. My heart swells and hurts at the same time...the infinite and swiftly fleeting converge in a moment and Im not sure which to hold ontoso I let them both go, and trust we will meet again someday. When we do, words will not be needed because well look at each other and simply know: I got you.
