Greetings, Lindiwe! Thanks for reading my post. I'm glad that you enjoyed it and found some light in it. Actually, now I'm glad that I posted it on YMIB because the responses so far have been helpful to me. I was sharing with Sister InnaRae on her page that I sometimes hold back in sharing certain parts of myself that I feel are less than perfect because I don't want to burden others with my troubles or spread negative energy, or shoot sometimes I just don't want to be telling all that about myself. But I know that part of healing is being able to first accept those parts of ourselves that we aren't so fond of. Only then can we move forward.
Blessings to you and keep on smiling!

I wasn't able to fast this beginning of Autumn but the Princess and I will be doing a Fruit Fast this New Moon which is next week. You always provide me with inspiration and encouragement and for that I am eternally grateful! Sending you love and light!

Give thanks for reaching out! I am planning to make size 6 a standard for all my samples, but I could try a few things on you for the overall look/fit. Feel free to contact me via email, and let me know your availability. Let's get together when our schedules permit. Let's sit down for tea and connect!

p.s. I realize you left a message on my page and asked about the name Saarchi...it's the name of my forthcoming clothing line. There's a long history behind it that I can share in the future.
Warm Love! Just dropping by to say hello and to welcome you to the Circle! I hope you find much inspiration for life, creativity, and health with each and every visit! Take care and have a wonderful and relaxing weekend!
Give thanxx for the reach, and beautiful wordz! I see we have much in common as well! I've requested a link, and pray we are blessed to build in the future.
My name means "the essence of life." Yes we have much in common and I was like WOW! It is truly a blessing to be in the company of a sister who is your mirror. I'd love to talk to you via the telephone.
Good evening my Sista Liniwe...
I'm sending you love, peace and hope with some positive energy. Thank you for extending your hand of friendship. I pray that your Labor Day weekend was blessed and wonderful. I will be connecting with you more later. Have a wonderful blessed day!

I am so pleased to see you here! I just left your town and I am sorry I didn't get a chance to connect. You will love this space as I do; the Sistahs here are wise, helpful and gracious.
