I tried to post a comment the day your message came out but my computer was on strike. I wish you continued safe trails, if you are not home yet....I agree with Maryse........I could not have said it any differently or better.....there is no guilt....you have worked hard for this cruise and deserve it and yet the pull of the heartache is raw..........we want to reach out so badly and help and at times it is such a confliction in where we may be in our lives.....the ying and the yang....as Maryse said, "I am glad you stayed in your joyful place" you taught me with that that it is "ok" to do that and it is. Peace be with you, love. Sharon xoxo Hey Michelle and Bill! I tried to post a comment the day your message came out but my computer was on strike.

Thanks so much for your powerful message! I was trying to put myself in your shoes as you were writing this. I can only imagine it was a hard time for you. You did the very best thing you could do - reach out, express yourself, and encourage others. There is such a thing as joy through tears. Thanks for reminding us! Here's hoping the rest of your trip was as meaningful. Thanks again. Wow! Thanks so much for your powerful message! I was trying to put myself in your shoes as you were writing this.

Thank you for these wonderful words....you have motivated me to give the cost of one luxury item or service (in my case a mani/pedi) to the people in Haiti. Thank you for sharing your thoughts and possibly motivating a couple more people to action to help our brothers and sisters in Haiti. Amazing Michelle…you are so inspiring!!

I continue to send prayers of divine love everywhere they're needed. Be well, Michelle! Maryse made such a great comment that all I can do is bow to hers, and express the same.

The light and the dark. The happy and the sad. Always hand in hand. Byron Katie writes that true compassion is helping from that place of feeling good. 'I can help you because it is not my time' kind of thing. So what you did is wonderful: you stayed in your joyful place and reached out. There's no guilt to be felt. This is your journey and it is good. Love, Maryse It’s the contrast, isn’t it? The light and the dark. The happy and the sad. Always hand in hand.
