It’s been sitting on my coffee table, propped up against one of my crystals, waiting for me. It’s a treat I’ve been saving, savoring. I didn’t want to open it until I had real space to sit down all by myself in a moment of real quiet because I knew this book is the kind of book you read with your whole heart. It’s not the kind you half-read while keeping an eye on your baby when she’s watering the plants in the garden; or the kind you skim through in between meetings. It’s the kind of book you read when everything is quiet and everyone’s gone and it’s just you and the dogs and a hot cup of tea and you lie down in your hammock and take your first deep breath all day and you know, you just know: this book is about to unlock something within you. I just finished 3 week-long retreats and this moment, this book, is my reward.⁣ ⁣ I’m one chapter in and I’m crying already. It’s an interesting thing, being one of the first people in the world to read a book that you know is going to change so many peoples lives. And the person who wrote it is one of your dearest friends and right now she is probably sitting in her one-bedroom apartment, drinking her fourth cup of coffee of the day, or talking to a random person in the street about love, reading their lips while listening intently because she’s almost deaf, and she is wondering if anyone is going to read what she wrote and I know she is equally excited and terrified about where this book might take her. ⁣ Pouring your entire heart out on paper will do that to you. It’s scary as fuck. This level of vulnerability, of storytelling, of truth, changes the world. She’s already changed mine. ⁣ ⁣ @jenpastiloff - I believe in you. I love you. I got you. Thank you for cracking my heart open again and again and again.⁣ Everyone - buy this book. Do it now. ⁣ ⁣ It’s everything. x」4月3日 7時28分
