lettersOne of the first things you discover when you put an inspirational website online, is that a lot of people will write to you. Many of the letters I receive are complimentary, praising the website and its content. Some are more specific, mentioning a section of the site or a poem the writer especially likes. Still others are intensely raw and personal from people who feel comfortable enough to confide and share their private thoughts and feelings. Mail is always welcome. I feel fortunate that there are so many interesting individuals who not only visit Inspiration for the Spirit, but also take the time to write.

Peace and Love always,
Patricia

    Dear Patricia, Thank you for the response to my earlier comments. It is an amazing journey to “quiet one’s soul” after the loss of the “one who found you!” I keep thinking I see my Mother, and have a hunch I do. Peace and harmony.

    I’m so in awe of your website that I almost can’t find the words . . . almost (lol). You don’t just have a website here, you’ve created a magical, fun, thought-provoking realm. Your pages are a joy to look at and to read . . . wow! I’ll be visiting often.

    Very first off, I love your poetry. My trip to visit you has been so rewarding, and sprinkling it with fairy dust of love has been a pure pleasure. This is a large (huge) website and full of interesting, meaningful poetry, quotes, and personality.

    My Dearest Girlfriend, Once again you amaze and inspire me. The website is not only your creation but your reflection. . .an e-look into the awesome friend I now share with thousands. I have to admit that it does make me just a little jealous! I still laugh out loud when I hear the Ryan Adam’s tune “Firecracker,” and picture us singing at the top of our lungs and dancing out the car windows in Brooklyn, sharing our fun with perfect strangers. The weekend in New York with your wonderful daughter, the most beautiful social butterfly ever created, was one of the best times in my life because of you. No one ever had a better time or made better memories. We were sure in our element with all the fabulous people, not to mention the date we almost kept with the “model scouter!” The masseuse who pursued you at every street corner! The nice chauffeur who wanted to give US money! And the brunch with Gavin DeGraw. Yeah! We know HIM! Remember standing at the wall of flowers where the Towers used to be, and all the wonderful people we met there? And what about that jogger in New Jersey with the spandex pants? And the nice guy making the balloon hats? The wine for $22.00 a glass! Yes, thanks for the memories! I am so proud and thankful to have you in my life, more than a friend, someone who shares my feelings and is really a soul-mate. I’ve said it before and I mean it now more than ever that you are a true inspiration in my life, and I look forward to sharing many more joys, laughs, cries, bottles of wine, excursions, and dreams with you as we grow to be little old ladies someday. You do know how to make dreams come true, and now I realize that you know how to make a website come to life too! It is you! In all your wonder and creativity, your honesty and integrity, and now a guiding light to many all over the world who might need a beacon to show them the way to true inner peace, spiritual strength and self-acceptance. I am so glad we have traveled a stretch of life’s journey together and I can not wait to see where our journey leads. Your friendship is one of my life’s greatest blessings. You are a treasure! I love you!

    I love your site. I was looking for something on loving myself when I surfed onto your poem “Loving Myself.” It’s perfect. I have read all your poems . . . was bored studying after studying for an anatomy exam. I especially like “Mean Brother Rising.” I love your site, and it seems like you have put on the web what my soul feels. Thank you for this beautiful site. Love always.
