Thank you, Tara, for answering my question. It was beautiful and you don’t need to worry about sounding woo to me! Your answer resonated deep for me and sits in a place which I know and believe as also to be true. It’s the in between place I struggle the most; the wanting to be there vs. here and trusting that what I imagine, dream, and aspire too will unfold in a magical and remarkable way. As you said, it’s not up to us on the details or the how to’s, which is both a relief and a challenge for me! Haha. I am going to sip in your medicine like an elixir and begin to sense and feel and imagine some of my dreams. Thank you so much for your real and heartfelt answer. I’m going to listen to your response often. I never imagined I would want to live on a farm until I discovered you. You planted that seed. I’m still not sure I want to live on a farm, but what I will imagine is what it is that idea of living on a farm feels like and what it is about that way of life that appeals to me. I am also going to do this with my next romantic partner. I want a man who wants to do the hard work and shows up in a real and authentic and courageous way to his life and to ours, and how it would feel to be in a relationship with a man. It’s hard to imagine those details yet but I think there is no right or wrong way to do this, and just like any practice will evolve and grow stronger with practice and time. Thank you - I feel a sense of faith in this moment that I sometimes cannot find on the harder days. Xo Dina

Oh my goodness! What a beautiful response. Thank you for sharing your worldview. I am sharing with my daughter as well. I appreciate your clarification that your visualizations don’t mean that the normal negative parts of life don’t happen; that they are just a regular part of life.

Thanks again for expending your energy into these q&a’s.
