From a friend who is not yet ready to make her own poster but said I could share her comments :)

" I really love your blog, and I love the whole IDEA of your blog! It is very uplifting and healing to read. I especially love the chair "exercise" that you suggest doing.

I think the reason that some of us have a difficult time writing posters with nice things about ourselves, is because (with me, at least) we have lost a lot of that childlike mentality that once came so naturally for us---care-free, full of faith, full of hope, and full of love! Children are some of the most noble examples I know!

I wish, for a short time, that I could go back to those care-free days of my childhood---the days of chasing chickens in my backyard, collecting golf balls on the golf course behind my house, jumping off the roof into piles of snow, burying my body in the warm sand of my sandbox so I could play outside in the cold just a little bit longer, laying on the soft green grass-- finding beautiful pictures in the clouds, believing that all adults were faithful to each other after they got married. Those were the days!  

Don't get me wrong---There are many aspects of my life that I love now, too ---they are just different. I love the knowledge I have gained---along with all of the good AND the bad experiences! I love my beautiful children. I love seeing them make good choices and succeed and even excel in the things they desire. I love seeing them succeed in ways that I never did! 

But--I will be honest, I have not had an easy life--ESP. in my later teenage years, and even more so--my married years---they have been downright ROUGH. They have been full of challenges...mostly ones that have opened my eyes to the harsh sense of reality of the world, and tugged at my self-esteem and sense of self-worth, like nothing has before! I have lots of work to do in the area of self-worth!! 


So---THANK YOU for doing this!!   It truly is a beautiful, worthwhile project, Aimee."
