  • Laurie, I know we’ve never actually met but I’ve been following you, your website and your blogs for 3 or 4 (5?) yrs now…so my question is, how can you know me so well? Your emails come to me exactly when I need them most! I just read 30 Reasons Why YOU Are Amazing and realized that EVERY SINGLE ONE is describing me. I have been asked many, many times how I could go through so much and still be in an upright position and going on, & the answer is in #30. I am loved. I am loved by God. Thank you for pointing out your list to me….sometimes I do forget that in spite of overwhelming odds, I am ok because I am loved.
