I’d love to introduce you to each other.
You’re the AMAZING people reading my blog.
There’s a woman who can conduct any orchestra you set in front of her, two doctors, the best cookie-baker on the planet, and a marketer-turned-counsellor who unwinds the knotted yarn of people’s lives.
A pharmacist who loves to travel. A beekeeper. Mums who run.
There’s a musician who took up ukulele at 83. A lady learning Italian, a dynamo American, three cellists and a weekend chef. A bone marrow donor who saved her sister. A bestselling author and a newly published one.
A songwriter. A raspberry jam maker who teaches Autistic kids. A brilliant, edgy copywriter. A genius at fundraising.
Six ladies in their 80s, and six incredible men: a trainer, an entrepreneur, a banker, two students and a big-hearted, adorable plumber.
There’s a gardener and two massage therapists. An artist, a fashion designer and a painter. A Maths tutor, beautiful and wise.
Exceptional teachers and two mums who love interior design. A gorgeous bellydancer with long silver hair.
And dozens and dozens and dozens more…
Incredible women. Amazing men. Showing up in your own lives, being seen. Doing your thing in the world.
Giving.
I wish I could put you all on a cruise ship, with an ice-cold margarita in your hand. I wish I could introduce you to each other and hear the buzz of your laughter!
I’d raise my glass and say thank you -- for seeing the world through my eyes every week.
YOU are amazing.
We’re all here, in this together.
Each one of us mining diamonds in our own backyard.
