I drove home from Portland through the Columbia River Gorge yesterday afternoon, and I had SOAT with me! Here’s a little collage. [Counter-clockwise from top: from my home - stormy skies and the pear orchard behind my house (Mt Hood can be seen in the background on a CLEAR day); Multnomah Falls; and the Bridge of the Gods.]
I am so very excited to see & hear Elizabeth Gilbert TONIGHT at the VOICES event in Portland, OR.
Liz: Thank you for coming to Portland!! Enjoy our lush land of mystical moss, vegetation, and – since it is fall – the refreshing, cleansing, wet rain! Cheers!! – Heather

Thank you, New York Times for a great piece in today's science section about "The Signature of All Things", and about women's work!
I like that they worked the bit in there about "bulldozing".

A LOVELY STORY from last night’s event in Dallas! I got to sign her wedding shoe…
A LOVELY STORY from last night's event in Dallas! I got to sign her wedding shoe…a first for me, to be sure!

Almost four years ago I moved to Dallas without knowing a soul. I was in a state of personal, emotional, and spiritual saturation. My life was stagnant, and in need of repair – some areas to which I was aware, and some yet to be revealed. I made the journey away from the familiar because of Eat Pray Love.
And some time later, when I was sitting alone outside of a coffee shop, I finished the final words to Committed, shut the cover, and my phone immediately rang. It would be the first call from my future husband. I find no coincidence in this.
And when we married, and I chose to walk myself down the aisle, I asked my best friend, my soul sister since adolescence, to write a message on the bottom of my shoe. I gave her no further instruction. Whatever she wanted to say to me to accompany my walk. Out of all the words in the world she chose those of Elizabeth Gilbert.
What I know for sure is that I am filled with gratitude for such an inspirational teacher. That I am proud to stand on the shoulders of a woman who shared her journey, so that I could go on mine. That I am not done. That I will continue to facilitate my daily rescue. To grow and gain and fight for my worth. To shed familiarity, stand with boldness, maintain my individuality even when intertwined with present companionship.
Tonight my soul skipped a beat (and I probably gave a hug that lasted a little too long). I was renewed by being in the presence of someone who has been with me all along. What I know for sure is that I am humbled by Elizabeth Gilbert. Thank you. Thank you. Thank you.
