That reminds me! I am heading to the US for 2 weeks around Easter to see my sister - I have to make my donation so that I can get a sweatshirt / technical shirt too!

Sam is totally awesome. I met him in Phoenix and he's just a very rad guy. I wear my operation Jack sweatshirt every day, I'm in love with it. Great interview.

I can 100% say that this recipe is so yummy. I can't say if my texture was right, but the flavour made up for it. Hope you enjoy it, and if you take any photos when you make it I will post them - you can email them to me at donna [at] myfitnessyear [dot] com - thanks!

I hadn't heard about either Evan or Eric. Thanks for sharing this. I am always amazed by both, people's ability to survive impossible situations and people's capacity for generosity. Thanks for the reminder of all that is good.

Thank you to everyone for all the comments.

When I posted this entry, I did so because I had to find a way to express myself in order to confront what I have never really acknowledged before. I don't think I have ever discussed this with anyone, ever. It was a big decision for me to "put it out there". I don't often visit the "alone zone" but thought the time was right to explore it well and to tell others about it.

In writing this entry, I put my finger on a few things that trigger me to have these feelings, which I will seek to address in 2010. I can't wait to see what the year ahead will hold.

Blogging, you might say, is a self indulgent habit. You write about you. I felt compelled to write this. I knew it would help me to get my head in order.

But I never realised that the post would resonate with so many people...

I feel overwhelmed by the support, reaching out, and understanding shown to me and expressed by so many people on this blog, via Facebook, Twitter, and email as a result of this entry.

I can only say that if there is one thing I have learned over the past weeks of writing this entry, it is that the process of confronting and crystalising my feelings has been enormously cathartic for me.

Words can resonate - through reading and writing I have found inspiration, support and energy. Thank you all so much.
