I was looking through some of the old posts. I was so glad that I wrote them! I found things I had totally forgotten. I found one where I had written:
I am sitting here amazed with the coolness of my life.
Jeffrey Gitomer: Little Gold Book of YES! Attitude: How to Find, Build and Keep a YES! Attitude for a Lifetime of SUCCESS (Jeffrey Gitomer's Little Books)
This book literally changed my life within two months of reading it. It gave me some direction that paved the way for wonderful new opportunities. Thank YOU Jeffrey!
Frances Hodgson Burnett: A Little Princess
I've read this book many times and most of those times have been as an adult. To me it's the perfect story about creating the life you want. I have always loved how Sarah stayed true to her self no matter what happened. It didn't matter whether she was a pampered student or a servent. Then the magic at the end. Perfect!
Anne Lamott: Bird by Bird
This remains my favorite book on writing. I read it about once a year. Maybe we don't all want to write a book but a lot of us like to write something. I like writing TO people.
SARK: Inspiration Sandwich
This was one of the first two books by SARK that I bought. A lot of books come and go in my life but this remains special. I just love her books, especially the earlier ones like this. After I read her books, I began writing many things in colored markers.
Julia Cameron: Vein of Gold
It seems like everyone is familiar with Julia Cameron's book, The Artist's Way. I read this book first and I actually did most of the exercises. This book broke me open creatively. I found it a very powerful book. I consider this to have been a life-changing book in my life.
Veronique Vienne: The Art of Imperfection
This is one of my all-time favorite books. When I write people, I often think it sounds incredibly dorky. I rarely feel perfect when I write. But this book celebrates how perfectly imperfect we all are.

Cherish the Ladies: At Home
I like almost everything by Cherish the Ladies. This has one of my favorite songs on it though, John of Dreams. This cd also features the vocals of Aoife (Have you ever seen a cooler name?) Clancy. She later left the group. Joanie Madden plays the Irish Whistle.
Deva Premal: The Essence
Another Isabella Find. Listening to this is supposed to purify you. When I visited my sister in Rhode Island once, they played this music during our yoga class. (I also discovered she had a Krishna Das cd in her possession).
Whistlebinkies: Timber Timbre
Besides having a great name, this album also features some lovely music. This was a Gift Odyssey find.
Krishna Das: Pilgrim Heart
This was an Isabella discovery from when I lived in Michigan. It's chanting. It's Hindu chanting. It's Hindu chanting by an American. It's actually sort of a chanting sing-along. It's also incredibly beautiful. Sting is featured in one of the songs. This is my favorite Krishna Das album.
