Dear Rich
I wanted to take a moment to say “Thank you”. Thank you for putting yourself out there. Thank you for assembling the courses. Thank you for trying to use your pain to help others heal.
Choosing such a path is not easy. You get to deal with all the fans (and yes, even tho’ they may mean well, it can come off as something else). You have the trolls who have nothing better to do than to mock your efforts. You get to deal with your own pain in ways that someone who keeps it all on the “down low” doesn’t. While the benefits are there for how you share this gift, there are also the difficulties that are exclusive to the “champion”.
For taking that chance anyway, thank you. For being human and vulnerable, thank you. For putting up with the damaged souls who flood you with their needs and attempts to heal themselves that sometimes seem to be taking more than you have, thank you. For being you and helping others to find out who they are too, thank you.
For every person who makes you regret that you put it all out there, I’m pretty sure there are many more who don’t know how to tell you that you’ve been a guidepost and, in many cases, a lifesaver. On their behalf, and for myself, please always know that no matter how crappy things might seem, there are some who will always think back to what you’ve done and say a silent but relief-filled “Thank you”.
