Hi Jamie,
Just wanted to say thank you for the tip of the hat to Vital Signs. Much appreciated, and I look forward to our dialogue in Jan. Til then, cheers, Gregg
Hi Gregg! Thanks so much for stopping by. You’re very welcome. I’ve already been hearing how people love that elephant story! I know it will stay in my heart. I’ll look forward to chatting in the New Year!
What a beautiful ‘reading’ Jamie (I see the author caught it too!) I was so moved by “..my soul doesn’t seem to care what price I pay to live passionately..” I have found this to be very very true!! LOL I look forward to the interview with Gregg.
