What a wonderful family photo from Boston 2021! I believe your expression demonstrates what you’ve chosen to do with your story. Possibly also with a hint of post-race endorphin levels?
Some grueling races aren’t run on the ground. Rather, chasing our demons can require similar effort and dedication to rid our brains, our souls, of the “dark matter” that troubles our lives.
Thanks for exemplifying that and for your books to inspire us to strive for healthier lives. 🙏🏽
Thank you so much Gary. There is so much truth to what you write here..."grueling races aren't run on the ground." I can certainly resonate. I appreciate your comments and your support. :) Have a marvelous Monday.
Jules, as you know, people follow who they trust. You continue to deliver on your promises whenever humanly possible. Your husband and two precious children will carry your example of a promise keeper deep within their hearts forever. You are trust worthy, that is why I love reading your daily poetry. I trust you❗️
Dear Julie, I feel like I am the one person, the one runner and the one mother you had to write the book for but I know there are many others that got blessed by your books. Thank you for writing them❤️.
Thank you so much for sharing this here. I'm so happy to know and so grateful to have connected with you through this community. I'm sending many blessings to you and your family. xox
SUCH a great post, Julie, and the picture is wonderful!
'Staring Down a Dream' was one of my favourite reads of the year. To everyone out there reading these comments do please click below to read my review of this fabulous book - I wholly, heartily and thoroughly recommend it - tell Santa! 🎅
I have also given a lot of thought to why I’ve written my books.
Reasons and explanations flow through me like a river. The one I hold onto is that I want to be the captain of my ship, the director of my narrative -- empowered to be the hero of my own story -- come what may.
I am grateful for your sharing. Putting yourself in the display window takes some courage.
Thank you also for encouraging others to explore their stories through the room you host on Fridays.
I'm grateful for your comments and encouragement! Your "why" for writing your books is courageous and contagious! :) Your book Poise is allowing others to do the same. Thank you.

Photo speaks a thousand words
A “treasured” moment
Jules, continue to do what you say and say what you do. Nothing is more powerful.
Good morning Clark,
Thank you for this "treasured" haiku and your encouragement. I hope your Monday is off to a great start. :)

What a beautiful thing to say, Clark. Thank you!
I value your trust and the feeling is mutual.
Thank you for letting us in your life and shining your positive spirit. It’s a joy to read your writing in substack and on the printed pages!
I just got in from an early run to read this. :) Thank you Amie for you support and kindness. I'm all smiles.
