		<description>D&#039;Arcy,
I&#039;m so glad that you feel a rising. It&#039;s always better than the falling. I&#039;m also happy that the articles of faith I wrote resonate with you.
It&#039;s important that we have direction for our spiritual selves.

Best of luck to you in the next few months especially!</description>

		<description>Thank you D&#039;Arcy.  You have so eloquently written about your journey.  I too find I am finally rising out of my flames but sometimes finding it hard to let go of the definitions.  I am incredibly grateful to know people here are doing the same - that is keep on keepin&#039;on no matter their circumstance.</description>

		<description>Krisanne, wow! Thank you so much for your beautiful words. I&#039;ve heard a lot about you as well and feel very honored that you have taken the time to read my posts. I agree that the divinity in each of us is just waiting to be set free and our paths of reaching that don&#039;t all have to be the same.

Caroline, Thank you. I&#039;ve seen so much courage in your life. From my point of view I have learned from you and admired you for a long time. I think that you are living authentically and I appreciate all you&#039;ve added to my life this past year.

Lacy, thank you for taking the time to comment. I wish you peace and blessings in the now and in the future.

flygirl--you&#039;re my favorite and you know it.

G--you&#039;ve added so much heat to fuel my flight this year. Your courage has built mine and I think that&#039;s the amazing thing about growth and taking chances. Thank you!</description>

		<description>I love this illustration of change and the whole idea of the phoenix. I&#039;ve been so lucky to be a part of your journey, and to have you support me in mine. It has been so great to see the courage that you have shown in the last couple of years. It&#039;s so interesting to me how its so easy to be afraid of change and fight or avoid it, but when you really do accept and embrace it, its amazing how it seems to turn out better and more beautiful than whatever it is you are holding onto in the first place.</description>

		<description>This has been a rough but wonderful year for me, too. Both this and Jessawhy&#039;s Articles of Faith post really resonated with me. Thank you for your courage!</description>

		<description>D&#039;Arcy, What a beautiful symbol of regeneration you&#039;ve highlighted here. Thank you so much for sharing your thoughts.

That quote by Anais Nin has made me think - how much do I live my life with courage? In what ways can I be more courageous and therefore expand my life? 

Good luck to you with all your new endeavors.</description>

		<description>This is such a beautiful expression of spiritual freedom--it&#039;s something I&#039;ve been thinking about a lot lately as these two years have been very difficult for me as well. I feel like God exists in that spaciousness--that the moment we step out of those boxes that have so longed defined us is the moment that we really, truly touch divinity. 

On a side note--I love your thoughts and your writing d&#039;arcy! I&#039;ve been following you on this blog for some time. I&#039;m good friends with kaRyn and Rebecca and they&#039;ve both expressed a lot of admiration for you. And I can certainly see why!</description>
