I want to thank you for telling your story and all the inspiration you post on facebook. I find myself utterly curious as to your current mind set and how you choose what and when to share. How does life flow for you? Do you contemplate all that you choose to do or are you more of a whatever comes your way kind of person? Whatever you are doing Keep it Up. Great getting to know you through your book and writing!<\/p><\/blockquote>\n<p>Dear Larry,<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for your questions about my story. I share when I have a sense, a feeling, maybe because I&#8217;m empathic, and can tell when to share or not. I will share when the opportunity presents itself, but I do not dump my story on just anyone. I share when a feeling pushes me to share. I can&#8217;t explain this feeling any other way. Let&#8217;s just say I share when it feels right.<\/p>\n<p>Recently, I&#8217;ve had the opportunity to share my testimony in church. It was a huge step for me to allow myself to share in front of those I attend Celebrate Recovery with. I was nervous at first, but I felt relieved when not one person judged me.<\/p>\n<p>I am more of a \u201cwhatever comes my way\u201d kind of person. I flow through life one day at a time without looking back. I don\u2019t hold grudges and try to love people. I rarely anticipate tomorrow and live for each day without making plans. I&#8217;m adaptable, but I can commit to doing things if I desire.<\/p>\n<p>Thank you for your compliments on the book and my writing. I&#8217;m currently working on a sequel. Dr. Baer and I truly appreciate hearing your kind thoughts.<\/p>\n<p>Karen<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Comment by Larry on 10 Mar 2012 at 1:56 pm Hi Karen!
