Pausing to Reflect
It is my birthday tomorrow and I find myself in the midst of an existential crisis... Although I've been so busy of late that I've hardly had time to breathe, I find myself questioning the choices I've made and what I want for the future. Sometimes I wonder why I push so hard and then there are times I wonder if I'm doing enough.... I know this means it is time to step away from the fray and take some time to reflect. I wish you all a happy holiday season, filled with love and laughter, joy and delight!
But if you have nothing at all to create, then perhaps you create yourself.

Have a wonderful birthday Ingrid! XO
Happy birthday tomorrow and take your time to reflect and enjoy the holidays.
Greetings from Denmark
Happy Birthday, Ingrid. This is the perfect time of year to reflect. 2012 is almost here!

I hope you have a wonderful birthday and that the reflecting will lead you to see what you do and what you have achieved in a all positive light. You're a hugely creative and successful person and I think you have every right to be proud of your achievements and to celebrate tomorrow in a big way!
Happy Birthday for tomorrow, Lots of Love from London xo
Happy Birthday Ingrid!!!
I understand you're need to reflect.
Consider the possibility that you are on a path that has a life of its own. You're coming up for air, looking around and wondering why and how you got there is a natural feeling.
I hope you will also think about the amazing new adventures and skills you have acquired....they may not have been things that you planned to do...or expected yourelf to do...but they are driving you to become you were most meant to be.
Happy happy birthday. I think you're The Bomb!
Happy Birthday Ingrid. I hope you have time to relax and reflect.
I hope you had a wonderful birthday Ingrid and all the reflections have come back shining... xv
Oh I missed it. Hope it was a smashing birthday, Ingrid, and that all your existential questions have been answered in all the best ways possible. (And will have to come back to read your last post as it sounds exquisitely intriguing!)

Thank you so much Ingrid for, not only, sharing your knowledge, but being so generous with it. Hope that the holidays will give you what you need or want. You certainly deserve to receive.
With kindest regards,

Dear Ingrid, I hope your birthday was a very happy and wish the new year with good health, love and laughter. They say the first person to whom we congratulate on the day of our anniversary would be our mother. Because without their courage we would not be here. I always thank with a prayer to my mother on my birthday (which is in December and I am also in crisis! Ahahahahahahah.
Exciting read your (our) charges and uncertainties, you are above all, courageous.
With love, from Brazil
