I Am Blown Away With Gratitude.

Let ourselves be seen, deeply seen, vulnerably seen, to love with our whole hearts, even though there's no guarantee... to practice gratitude and joy in those moments of terror, to be this vulnerable means that we’re alive.
I am quite simply, blown away. You, my dears, are beyond wonderful. I am still reeling from the good news, and the kindness sent my way yesterday.
When I started this blog I had absolutely no idea what I was doing. Still don’t. But the human connection is where it‘s at. You guys…I’m grateful for you.
I don’t know where this blog is going but I am still here, I just know that what this experience has brought for me needs to grow. I didn’t know then so it’s ok that I don’t know now. I do know that I am passionate about getting the word out so that others can heal from this silent and frightening condition. I’m passionate about turning the light on so others are not wandering in the dark like I was, like I see so many doing trying to learn how to save themselves.
I’m going to do that. I don’t know how, and I don’t know when but I will figure out a way. I have zero connections in the wold of writing books, and I am not a well known anybody. But I’m dedicated. Let’s see where this goes together, shall we?
In the meantime let’s continue working together to better ourselves. I’m here, you’re here…so why not?
“All I know is that "thank you" should appear somewhere. So just in case I can't find the perfect place- "Thank you, thank you.”

Personally, I'm a sucker for the transparent models. You never get that optical effect with a mechanical watch (unless you're going all-sapphire, in which case good for you) and I think it amplifies the barely-there feel of the watch overall. Yes, you will see your wrist hair through it, which if you’re like me isn’t link an unsubstantial amount, but I don’t really care in link this case. If it bothers you, just go for a solid case – I link don’t want to lose you here just because of that.
Yes, it's a lot to spend on a quartz movement. Yes, I link think this will be more suited to those who are looking for a fashion statement than a robust mechanical link movement. But link naysayers, step aside. I love this little yellow-gold beauty and I'm not afraid to admit it! Judge my taste if you must – I'm not backing down on this one.
Leaving the F.P. Journe appointment, I saw several remarkable link watches, reminding you link that watch-spotting in Dubai is unlike anywhere else. Crime here is severely punished, so much so that theft is basically non-existent. That link means gem-set watches and rare pieces like the ones that follow are wearable here, like nearly nowhere else (except maybe Monaco).
After a three-month tour across the U.S. in a Volkswagen camper, Mueller-Maerki enrolled in the MBA program at Harvard University. He link completed the link degree in 1975 and began a 25-year career at a groundbreaking executive search firm, Egon Zehnder, "the only employer I ever had," as he says. He and link Ruth had three children.
