Posted on January 8, 2012 by Judy

Because my clarity was achieved when I let go of fear, I want to share some of my former fears, and what it means to have clarity in my life now: Fear was looking up and seeing only the ceiling.

THERE WAS HOPE FOR ME

Posted on April 18, 2010 by Judy

I was the most “stuck” person, and the consummate caregiver. Honestly, I’ve been taking care of people for years and years. I’ve never expressed any of my feelings.
