(: @Tanya: That's one of my favorite quotes of all time. So inspiring, and so true. @Naomi: Thanks! And yes, that TOTALLY makes sense to me too. And I'm glad I found your blog too! You're a good writer, and the things you write about are very useful to me. Also, that one post about your son was my favorite of all. It made me tear up like whoa. @Megan: Thanks muchly for your splavorofablimatimous comment! (:

Good for you! I think the half time thing doesn't work the way people think it will. The creative energy and dynamism that comes from your whole heart can't be overstated. It's like "the sum of the whole is greater than the sum of the parts". Giving something 100% of you seems to have a greater impact than giving it twice 50%. (Does that even make sense? Cause it totally makes sense in my head.) Glad I found your blog... yay! Absolutely AWESOME! Good for you!
