Dotsie,
What a wonderful article! Very uplifting and, well, to use one of your own words, serendipitous. With the warmth I've found here in BWS as a sort of fresh new "wind beneath my wings", I'm discovering a new energy and passion for discovering my passion, i.e., purpose for this time in my life. I printed your article off and plan to use it as a blueprint for getting started.

Thank you again for sharing your passion and purpose with all of us here...I for one can attest to finding in these "hallowed halls" healing for my soul, renewal of my spirit, and the strength to use my rusty voice again.
