This is in Response to the Questions and Reflections for June 27, 2007:
I am always "me", but there are definitely times, places and situations in which I feel that my true essence is flowing more freely.
I am most comfortable "being me" when I am surrounded by peace and beauty.
I feel like myself when I am cuddling and reading with my kids
Walking in the forest.
Holding hands with my husband.
Digging in the dirt.
Dancing around wildly to wonderful music.
Being near the ocean.
Engaging in good conversation.
Listening.
Learning.
Doing yoga.
Drinking good coffee and reading an uplifting book..
I am also more "me" when I am working for a cause that is bigger than me.
Volunteering and speaking for those who can't speak for themselves makes me feel like "myself", too!
I aspire to live from my heart and be my authentic "me" 24/7....
Namaste.

I love your list! It's quiet and loving. I can smell the coffee, the baby-powder and the sea … (p.s. this is a lot like what my list would look like :)
Thanks for this post, Shannon. Many of your list could be on mine. I will do some soul searching and perhaps a new blog post will appear under mine soon.

Thanks so much for stopping by, Otter and CJ! It's so nice to hear from you! :-)
The coffee is on, the flowers are blooming and the porch swing is just waiting for some quiet conversation…. Make yourself at home…..
Namaste.

Getting to this a little late – but that snuggle on the couch with piles of reading material and a mushy little baby, ah, now that's a place I could live a long time. I love when I get to a page that says “inspiring information good ideas BABY HAND PAT PAT PAT pretty words…”
Your son is the cutest little guy, by the way!
