I’m glad you have taken up blogging, as that I believe helps expand the learning process (for blog readers … and bloggers). In a riff on two other inspiring authors – Oriah Mountain Dreamer and Martin Buber – I wrote about Oriah and Buber, I and Thou: Bringing All Of Who I Am to Blogging, in which I was channeling Oriah’s insights (inspired by Buber’s) with respect to how bringing all of who we are to our creative endeavors – blogging, writing, teaching – serves to inspire others:

“So when you write a piece of music [write a blog post / book] – let’s say if you’re a composer [a blogger / author] – and you bring yourself entirely to something that is larger than you, and you hold none of yourself back, you create a piece of music [blog post / book], which someone who listens to it [reads it], if they too bring all of themselves to it, they are able to directly experience that which is larger than themselves in their own way – it will be different than perhaps the composer [blogger / author] did – but there will be a similarity in terms of what they engage with.”

BTW, Oriah has also recently started blogging at The Green Bough./
