"CONGRATULATIONS ME" on MY 5000th VIEW!

I'm just SO very proud of myself and want to "CONGRATULATE ME" for being steadfast and disciplined in trusting my own voice/heart and committing to my blog, this blog "WHAT TOUCHES THE HEART...2ART". Created by me, for me to share whatever I wanted in transparency and MY TRUTH (as lived and experienced by me)! I wanted a simple platform void of pretentiousness and propaganda. I wanted to HEAR myself OUT LOUD and TRUST that it was worth saying... A feeble attempt at BELIEVING in MYSELF without being ashamed of that as my declaration; My proclamation of FREEDOM. A valiant effort in exposing my naked soul for criticism and the courage to "NOT GIVE A FUCK!" I wanted a place where my rivers and streams could flow uncontested and be present in every thought as whole. I wanted to sail with my breath with the winds from the storms I had to quiet in my own soul. I wanted to loose myself of the chains of self criticism and sabotage and finally ACCEPT myself as worthy of my undivided attention. This was a moment conceived from years of self martyrdom and my concession that God, however one defines it, wanted me to "LIVE" and I wanted to. I AM... Through my words. It's not been quite a year yet but today I reached my 5000th view and that's a BIG FUCKING DEAL (without popularity or advertisments, just being ME). It's extremely difficult to INVEST Wholly and Solely (especially for women) into one's own voice and dream... Every step, no matter how small, that brings you closer to inner harmony and sacred solitude is ABSOLUTELY WORTH THE JOURNEY. YOU ARE... I AM. "GO PEARL!!!" (Yeah, I'm smiling from the inner applause, quiet and subdued.)

So appreciative of every single soul that graced this page and kindred relationships of the heart that I have gained around the world. Here's to the dreamer in us ALL. If your heart says GO, then you must GO! For it IS the ONLY way whereby DREAMS COME TRUE! And you become NEW! YOU BECOME MORE of "YOU"... No Dream Pursuit is ever comfortable, if it is, then you're ONLY Dreaming. A dream while awake and fear stares you in the face, now that's the dream worth FOLLOWING! FOLLOW YOUR OWN VOICE and BE WILLING TO STAND ALONE in order to STAND at all. Trust me, there's a GREAT BIG FAMILY of supporters awaiting your arrival... "WELCOME HOME..." A HOME that you create from all the broken pieces in your life; YOUR LIFE'S ART. Here's where the fun begins... Creating Your MASTER PEACE. Prepare for awe! Be astonished and amazed at the majesty birthed in your darkness. LOVING YOU... AS I LEARN TO LOVE/ADORE/HONOR/RESPECT/APPRECIATE/TRUST ME.

5000

(I'M JUST BEGINNING... AGAIN) I LOVE YOU PEARL, SO MUCH!!!
