I'm also currently reading Liz's new book Inner Excavation: Exploring Your Self Through Photography, Poetry and Mixed Media. The poetry part scares me a bit and that's probably why I should be reading it.

I love how you so often read about simplicity as the year turns. Me, too. Here's to more life, less stuff!

One of these years it's totally going to sink in :). I'm actually really good with the getting rid, it's the bringing in less that I seem to be challenged with.

Hi Ali! I love your site despite not being a scrapbooker yet...I have a 2,3 and 4 year old so I should be recording but I still find it overwhelming:) Anyway, I usually get on to your site to reread your favorite quotes, which I can't find today. I wanted to print some out. Can you help me ge to them or are they gone? Thanks for the help. And my word for the year is "plant" as we too just moved. Thanks so much! Rachel

Every link was a treasure, Ali. It was spiritually moving to read the God Box article. And, coincidentally, after reading Bio pages, two of the other authors live very near me! Stalking is a bad thing, right? :) Enjoy your new year and, thank you, as always for sharing your talents and yourself with us.

Ali, thanks for posting the link to the God box article. While I am in tears after reading it, I have a newfound sense of purpose and message that I want to leave my daughter with someday. Thank you, thank you, thank you.

Ali,
Thanks so much for posting my God Box article from Real Simple. I loved reading what your readers had to say about it and just want to say how grateful I feel to have had a mom who helped so many people, even after she was gone. Wishing you a beautiful new year and congratulations on a truly lovely site. Mary Lou

Ali,
So funny, was just scrolling through Twitter and saw your picture yesterday and today was checking for God Box references to my article first published in Real Simple. I've 'grown' it into a book coming out just before Mother's Day, "The God Box, Sharing my mother's gift of faith, love and letting go". Check out www.theGodBoxproject.com for the whole story of a one woman play, short films, an app and more. My Mom would be amazed that her little box has gone so far! I would love to send you a copy of the book when it's off the press. May I? Where? Thanks so much and congrats on your fantastic blog! Mary Lou Quinlan
