Louise Hay Died Today

Louise Hay died the other day.



Like many others, it made me reflect on how far I've come since that first book a friend gave me when I was just 21. (Now I'm 54).  That validated my urge to heal and be positive and showed me the way, gave me my first coping tools. Helped me get on the path to recovery and healing and kept me going through uncertain times.

I must have read "You Can Heal Your Life" dozens of times over the years. I soaked in every word each time.



There were other books, but no one lasted through the years still there. Still writing, speaking and helping other great healers publish their books.

I saw an article spread in San Diego once, where I was living. I could have met her. She had a nice house and was painting I remember.  I knew the area where she lived. It made her more human and real to know she was there. But I was still too scared to try and approach someone like her.

What if I knew then I was good enough?  Might I have looked into it more to see what she was doing locally and find my chance to meet the leader in self-love and self-care?

We'll never know.

But it still feels like I know her a little bit. That she was a part of my world and my life. She was a role model and a mentor and a leader.

I can't imagine where I'd be if I didn't find that book at 21. What other roads I might have taken.

Heaven is a happier place with you in it Louise, thank you for your lasting contribution!

Rest In Peace (& Love)
