Yes, Dawn, it was a very insightful day. I came home with two 'Aha!' moments. Firstly that all thoughts come from either the ego, or the spirit and only those that come from the spirit take us closer to heaven. Secondly, that only through meditation…
Hi Fiona,
thank you so much for your lovely welcome and beautiful comments!
You're not so very far away actually - I'm down in the South West actually, in North Dorset.
Your photo doesn't look like Harpenden!? :)
Our website address is www.womenforachange.org
and we also have a community which is www.womenforachange.ning.com
I was going to write a little more about it in beneath my profile but one thing is that I wasn't on the computer where I had my usual bits and pieces to hand(!) and also i'm wary of posting very much on beautiful little friendly sites like this one, because i'm not really only here to talk about my own work! Dawn is a dear 'ning-friend' from a year or so ago - and it's great to have a chance to touch base again!
But i will, in due course, put the ning badge with my profile - which has a link to the community - if Dawn doesn't mind.
And yes, I love the Matthew Arnold quote. There is so much power in us coming together with good intentions - and i believe women are perhaps particularly good at collaborating and sharing! And with different networks, women's groups and organisations all coming together there is absolutely no end to what we can achieve - so that is my vision!! :)
Looking forward very much to chatting more with you in the future, Fiona.
Blessings and love to you,
Chris
