I’ve been away, but I haven’t been idle. I wanted to check in with you so we can stay
connected…so you know I’m working hard for us.
I need you and I have a lot of exciting things to offer you in the
months to come! Let me tell you what I’ve
been up to.
I’m one step closer to creating a unique identity for Internal Luminosity the business, the
blog and the tribe. Doing so is an
intricate, creative, thoughtful process, and I’m very pleased that the designer
I’m working with agrees. I look forward
to telling you more about her as this project is brought to fruition. I anticipate welcoming you to our new home in mid-summer.
I just finished writing an article on emotional intensity for
the National Association for Gifted Children’s parent newsletter and will share
a link to that later in May.
This weekend I served on a panel of graduates from the Women’s
Studies Program at Old Dominion University.
They are celebrating their 35th Anniversary this year and had
an anniversary/reunion celebration this weekend. It included presentations from faculty,
current students and graduates. The
purpose of the graduates speaking was to explain about what they have done
since completing their degrees or certificates.
It was fulfilling to be able to make the connections from the self-knowledge, inspiration and confidence gained through my Women’s Studies certificate courses over fifteen years ago to all of the choices I’ve made and experiences I’ve been able to create for myself since. I also got the word out to a few more people about this work that I feel so passionate about--helping unique travelers craft lives they find well worth living. The event renewed my interest in the experience of gifted females, and I will share more about that in the future.

And then, if I am to be completely honest, there have been
strawberries to pick, and nature to commune with and the constant whispering of
the garden inviting me to dig and weed and sew—a meditation not to be missed. All
this, and you, are part of my life well worth living. If I may ask, please be patient during this
process and know that great new things are underway!
P.S. The photo above is of the nest a pair of robins have built in the wreath on my front door. The meaning making machine in me (or the the intuitive interpreter) accepts it as a symbolic gesture and a very good omen!
