Comment on The World Needs Stone Soup by Luanne Brown

Karen, this is beautiful. In a sense, it’s appropo of what we are doing with our Refugee Rag Rug project. Someone brings the fabric, someone else rips it into ‘yarn’ and still others make, finish, tag and deliver to the International Refugee Committee who place it in the homes of Refugee families new to our area. It’s a great metaphor for life—and, I might add—it’s a story my Dad used to tell frequently when he made stone soup so it’s a tale that is very dear to my heart. Thank you for writing this!

Thank you so much for sharing. I’m sickened at this election and its traumatizing effects on so many.

You have given me a much deeper understanding of childhood sexual abuse. I am so sorry for what you have gone thru but I am also so impressed w/ your willingness to share w/ everyone how your your deep & continuing work to deal with it. It’s an extraordinary story.

Karen, this is an excellent blog post about why victims of abuse were triggered by this election. Thank you for sharing the depth and the layers.

“I am not saying that Donald Trump is responsible for my nightmares. I am saying that feeling that I live in a country that validates sexual abuse, hate and misogyny activated my wounds.”

Comment on You BE You, I’ll BE Me by Maryann

Karen,

I totally relate to what you are saying. I, too, have been hiding out and hiding behind all sorts of things and I love the idea of stepping in for a Moment. That isn’t too scary. Then, I can see that one moment turns into more moments until I am living who I BE.

Thank you for BEing who you BE!

Blessings,

Maryann
