Hola beautiful, beautiful souls,
Goddess Journey day is the day we check in on our journeys, and the blessings & lessons that have been happening for us.
It’s the day we get to cosy up on a big purple couch with large mugs of tea, and connect-in and share about our journeys this week. It’s a little bit like coming home – to ourselves, and to each other. As always, you can share if you’re called in the Comments Circle.
I’m always glad when it’s a Goddess Journey check-in day. It’s like a little exhale of “aaaahhhhhh” and then a contented little sigh. Of course, that might be just me, but I likes it. 
And this week’s check-in is a little different (just like last week)… it’s on video!
Some extra things I need you to know
Today I want to sing you
You are my sunshine,
my only sunshine,
you make me happy
when skies are grey.
You’ll never know dear,
how much I love you!
For no apparent reason but I can.
Today I want you to know just how glad I am to know you.
Today I want you to know that we are all just so beautiful. Just as we are. With the fullness of our story, our glory and our frailties.
I adore you.
Probably the first time I get weepy on video, but won’t be my last…
Goddess Journey Check-in – 27 May 09 edition from Goddess Leonie on Vimeo.
As always, feel free to take the talking stick and share about your Goddess Journey, blessings and challenges over the last week. You are so gently held.
Love,

dearest Goddess Leonie,
the honesty and vulnerability of this post resonated so gently, yet so powerfully with my heart.
this past week of mine has been so akin to yours in its “shitty-ness” and its beauty. the struggle that i have went through has been so deep, for a few days in a row there would be moments where i would find myself climbing the stairs to my bedroom, huddling under the covers and sobbing out prayers of “please please please be with me, please help me.” because that was all i knew to say. and then tonight, as i meditated, i could feel divine light flooding into my soul, and i knew that this struggle was evidence of something deep happening within me.
thank you for being true to all of your experiences, the unshiny and shiny alike. it has given me the courage to claim and own all of my own as well. you are a jewel.
so much love,
and most sincerely,
maggie ann.

Thank you for sharing your vulnerability, Leonie, as I think it’s closer to our true self and harder to expose when we’re feeling unsure, cranky, tired, and generally spent.
I’m still laughing at a visual I had of you as Incorrigible Book Pimp, slouching around corners of bookstores, with your purple pimp hat and platform shoes on, trying to solicit patrons to the self-help/philosophy section.

Leonie ~ So tender, true, heartfelt, rich, real….all gorgeously you!! And I love what you say about being vulnerable in our stories…I too love how our stories makes us alive, connected, human. I’m finding the more real, human and authentic I am, the more connected I am to others.
You are such a wonderfully faceted, precious and shiny gem…
big hugs to you…
Shannon
P.S. For me, your aura — or your angels — around you are radiant on this video…

Leonie, I’d like you to know that I had my 2 year old step-son on my lap while I was listening to this and he said “I like doggie.”
I thought you’d like that.
He kept wanting to see more of Charlie. He’s saying “more, more” now.
