I have goosebumps!

If you believe in some so-called “woo-woo” things, check out astrocartography. It’s the belief that, based on some aspects of our vibrational energy, we literally vibe with certain places across the globe. Perhaps Hawaii is along one of your lines.

After moving to the mountains of Colorado, I realized one of my main lines runs through it. It makes sense because my soul feels like it was born here.

Thank you for sharing the origin of a story that has complicated beginnings. This was a nice way to honor it without sharing it.

I found a site where I could get a free chart made, and wouldn’t you know it. one of the lines splits right through the Hawaiian islands.

Your story about overcoming anxiety and finding unexpected relaxation in Hawaii is truly inspiring. You know it’s amazing how stepping out of our comfort zones can lead to such transformative experiences.

thank you for sharing this, it was very moving, and although i believe the story you wrote is excellent, i respect your decision to keep it private. no one loves a story like its writer.

I think it’s absolutely to have stories we don’t share, especially when they’re so personal. I know I have things that will never see the light of day, at least not in full.

I really love these alter ego journals. I believe a rare and really special thing when we find a surprising soul connection to a place. Unfortunately, I know what it's like to have that happen, then watch the place be devastated. In a way, the story never to be shared is still a love story to Lahaina because you answered the call of the creativity it inspired. This piece you've just written is also a moving tribute to that connection. Thank you for sharing it, and I'm so glad you get to return to Hawaii!

Such a beautiful story, I can very much relate to leaving a part of you somewhere else! For me it was Iceland. It is a heart-wrenching feeling and you described it fantastic! 🥰👍🏻

I felt the exact way when I left Rome! I'm still hoping to move there someday. 🫶❤️🫶

I can honestly say I know what you mean.
