In this week’s letter where I share the Good Stuff I find on the internet: zooming in on the human condition (insecurity, loneliness, self-regard) and then zooming out to the really big picture (responsibility and the higher self.

Every piece I share with you today is a gem. If you can’t read all of them in one sitting, come back and click on different links throughout the week.

This is just plain FASCINATING:

I am reminded of a journal entry I wrote at the beginning of this year—so I thought I’d share an excerpt with you today. Here’s a peek inside my journal…nine months ago:
