		<description>The proof of the pudding is in the reading.  After reading all of these comments, I must say that they stand as confirmation of the power of your post, and, yes, I felt it, too.</description>

		<description>Holy Crap! WoW!  I felt it all with you. I have the same perfection thing as well and I friggin hate dancing and think when I watch other people do it that &quot;damn dont they know they look like idiots!&quot;  And then of course I wish I was out there with them. I dont know when the hell I lost that freedom to FUCK UP! and not give a crap. I remember my Dad saying  Cool son how do you dance like that? You look cool man.
Reading your experience brought me back to that powerful younger self who didnt give a crap and ventured into that unknown, cocky as hell and boldly took the world by the balls. He&#039;s been dead inside me all along.
Thank you for reminding me that there is something more and I&#039;ve been hiding it too long from this world.
I love you girl!</description>

		<description>Hi Erica,

My ah-ha moment like this happened this past September. I fully understand what you experienced. The site www.Careerealism.com was born from my experience and I&#039;m having a blast with it.

Keep writing insightful posts. In all sincerity, I&#039;ve yet to read one from you that I didn&#039;t love!

		<description>Erica,

Talk about serendipity. I woke up this morning with such clarity and all I wanted to do was bask in it. Eventually, I turned on my computer to check my email and lo and behold your article and I was like that is super-right-on!</description>

		<description>Erica,
Thanks for sharing such a heartfelt story.
The vision, I think, is the opportunity we each have for tapping into our higher selves. This aspect of each of us is connected to and is part of the greater larger spiritual self—the larger You-Source-or-All THAT IS.
Just as some spiritual teachings say that as we have a desire it is already created for us,waiting for us with our name on it and will be ours when we believe that it is and know that we deserve it.
Thanks for the spark of inspiration for getting back in touch with our dreams.
Blessings to all!</description>

		<description>Thanks - encouragement is always appreciated whether it&#039;s to encourage people to look for that moment of clarity or to run with it after they&#039;ve discovered it.</description>

		<description>Erica,

Sometime I think you&#039;re writing just for me.  It&#039;s really extraordinary and I can&#039;t overstate how much it means to me.

Gotta get over my stage fright ;^D

		<description>Wow, great story!  One of my largest fears is trusting someone to represent me and do something I&#039;m supposed to do without my help or control, which would have conveniently allowed me to put someone else on stage in my place.  However, that probably wasn&#039;t allowed at the conference, was it?</description>
