My dearest sister. I love your words. I love your souls. I love your very way of thinking, feeling, sensing, being, realising, walking, laughing, crying, and knowing.

Your dance with God - with graceful paradox - in this Life, I witness with Awe.

You are an angel on earth. So human that god can only exist. So godly that human can only love.

Your birthday is a miracle, my miracle, and Ours.

I love you in both depth and shallow.

Happy birthday to your timelessness on earth.

Oh Carrie! My deep poetic angel sister you’ve done it again… I’m crying at the beauty that you are and reflect back to me…it is awe, exactly. What a gift to walk with YOU in this lifetime. I love you deeply, thank you ♥️😘

Thank you this was beautiful to hear this morning! I am turning 75 this summer. Last year I did a Mary Magdalene tour across Provence and hiked up to her cave. I just ordered the cards you referenced on this post. This was beautiful and soulful. Thank you so much! I am an Interfaith minister in Santa Barbara California.

I love this Barbra, thank you! I think you will love @Meggan Watterson’s deck, especially because you’ve been on the mountain! It is a work of art. Blessings and love to you dear sister! 🤍

I started weeping about a quarter of the way in, and then never stopped. So I read this again. I see so much of myself in here, you are a beautiful mirror. Thank you for this my sweet sister, I love it. I’ve been so deep since I was a child, an artist moving through the to world. But finding my “place” has been a devastating and beautiful journey…though I’ve come to fall quite in love with. I felt connected to every word 🥹🤍

Oh wow this has me in tears swelling up deep from within my heart ♥️ There really are no words to describe everything I’m feeling, but you have the gift of words that express so beautifully so eloquently so tremendously moving your inner and outer worlds.

It is my truly pleasure to be here with you and I'm so happy I found you! Your heart and soul really come through your writing and it is just beautiful. After reading it, I felt a deeper sense of peace and calm within that filled the space around me as well. I love the life you have created for yourself - writing to 'see' yourself and leading women on sacred journeys. That is my dream! I've also been a writer for a lot of my life - at times paid and published for small pieces, but what you've created for yourself sounds so sacred and transformational. I celebrate you and look forward to meeting you if possible on my first sojourn to France next May! Walking beside you on our journey of being fully Human and fully Divine!

Just realized I replied from my other account - both me! ;-)

Patricia Russo's avatar

Your message has touched me deeply Kalisa! I will save a spot for you next May and I cannot wait to guide you into the heart of Mary, and into the heart of it all! And we have this space here in the meantime! Sending you so much love, sister, from the foot of Mary's cave! 🤍
