Grab a book, a piece of fresh strawberry shortcake and take yourself to a quiet space for a literary vacation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The following excerpt comes from Knee Deep: a 9-Month Whirlpool of Handwritten Letters to the Creator<\/em>, my 4th <\/sup>published book.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Knee Deep\u2019s<\/em> back story is written in the book. It\u2019s my most vulnerable work I shared with readers and secretly hoped its publishing process would be delayed. Ironically, Knee Deep<\/em> published quickly, I\u2019ve marketed it least, yet out of my 6 books, it\u2019s gotten the most reviews.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

I\u2019ve posted excerpts from Life\u2019s Too Short for Dull Razors, Cheap Pens and Worn-Out Underwear; FROG Blog: Learning on a Lily Pad<\/em> and Unthawed<\/em> under the FROG Blog tab at www.gueststarcoaching.com<\/a> and Facebook (search Christina M. Eder)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Any of my six books can be purchased in various formats on Amazon, Barnes and Noble, Kindle and other online stores. <\/p>\n\n\n

Jesus,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for your discernment between contemplation and rumination. When I\u2019m tempted to over-think or over-articulate, you recommended getting one sheet of scrap paper to write my thoughts in rough draft format.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Writing slows my thinking because it takes more effort to process thoughts from head to paper. I found that when I see my thoughts written in my own script, I can stop the cycle of overthinking. It\u2019s good to think. It can become dangerous to overthink \ud83d\ude09<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Less words from me, more power to you! Love, Christina<\/mark><\/em><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Jesus,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Thank you for reminding me that loyal friendship doesn\u2019t mean continual communication. Consistency doesn\u2019t equal frequency. Sometimes a gradual trickle is more appreciated than a few floods of connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Some people have a natural ebb and flow in maintaining friendships. They are energized by significant interaction. I require considerable space and prefer one-on-one short visits. Help me respect natural boundaries. Teach me to accept myself as a faithful friend who needs space and time to process. I know your spirit understands what I mean!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Love to my provider, sustainer, encourager, savior, and forever loyal friend,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Felicity<\/mark><\/em> (author note: Felicity is my pseudo name when I\u2019ve discovered something significant to me)<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Readers! Thank you for taking 37 seconds to write your feedback. Your input offers me opportunity to learn and develop. <\/strong>
