You know how Life has this knack for just ... being "round," circular, symmetrical in a way that we can only see in the rearview mirror or from way up above, like a wildly perfect mandala? Of course, you know.
Well, as I see this new platform created for us by Ecologistics, our fiscal sponsor, I look back and one little pebble at a time I get to see how this all came to be. How, in the early WEEKS of the Happiness Sprinkling Project, Feneesha, one of our very first Ambassadors wrote to me that she had read about this new organization called The Pollination Project and how we may want to get in touch with them. Very soon after, we became one of their first grantees - and they have blessed us over and over and over, since that day. Blessed us with funding, with learning, with growing, with lifelong friendships (Liz, Chris, Alissa), and also with making it possible for us to receive tax-deductible donations - which is kind of a big deal. So you see, it's so much magic and often, we just have to start. Show up. Know in our guts the WHY and trust that the HOW will follow. One phone call at a time, one person at a time, one idea at a time. I will put this on the website this weekend but for now, I wanted to show it to you. It's kind of amazing. And then... not.

"Every time I read your blog I am so profoundly happy I did. The truth you speak is just mindboggling. The real, real voice you have.

"Thank you for sharing your wonderful, heartbreaking, exhilarating experience with the world."
"Thank You Laura for sharing, for teaching and spreading loving kindness. " "I think I love you. You bring good things into my life, or remind me of things I love and know, but have let go of." "Laura, you are so good for me. I laugh and sniffle and get the shivers when I read your essays. Thanks so much for letting all your wonderfulness run around loose." "Heart-achingly beautiful, your words and how you reveal your truth." "Thank you so much for who you are and what you share with the world. Your mere being transforms lives as it has transformed mine. This particular post did to my heart what water does to parched soil." "Thank you for your gentle words that are packed full of wisdom. I have been struggling with the concept of what words can do to another person when they are negative words. Your words are the flip side of our word power, and shows how delightfully powerful kind words can be. Thank you." "Once again Laura Lavigne takes you on an adventure of the heart. She has a way of pulling you right in the car with her. Asking you to consider changing a fear to taking thoughtful action. Whether she's teaching a class, leading a retreat or heading for a happiness sprinkling, Laura will invite you to shed old ways of thinking and be completely authentic. Join in!" "Essentially pure love. I enjoy how Laura is kind to herself and to us other humans who dance in and out of each other's lives. " "Don't miss a post! You can count on Laura for warmth, humor, charm, and a lift to your day and your heart. She inspires me to be braver than I am, and to love the world out loud. She's a gem, and a generous one at that!" Me
