SoulfulLiving.com T-Shirt Crowdfunder: "Be Soulful"

Dear SoulfulLiving.com Supporter,

When I set out to create SoulfulLiving.com in September 1999, I was grieving the loss of my father and had been searching the internet for personal growth and spirituality resources for comfort and healing, but there was so little available online at the time. I knew deep inside that I needed to create a website that would help people and offer inspiration, hope and healing. I had been “called” and I knew that creating this website was something I could not not do. And, I discovered that a wonderful byproduct of following this calling – creating this website – was that it helped me to heal, in many of the same ways I had hoped it would help others. Such a blessed gift! Isn’t there a saying that it is hard to help others without also helping oneself? SoulfulLiving.com is my calling – my Gift from God – my Truth, my Light. I can’t say for sure if I found my life purpose, or if my life purpose found me, but I know, without a doubt, that sharing my passion and love for living a soulful life is why I was put here on this earth.

I made a commitment to myself to launch SoulfulLiving.com on January 1, 2000, in honor of the New Millennium. And, that, I did! Time sure flies quickly. The feelings of excitement of birthing this project into life are still as fresh with me today as they were 14 years ago. My life has seen its share of twists and turns and ups and downs these last fourteen years, as I am sure it has for many of you. I am so grateful to you and hope you have found SoulfulLiving.com meaningful over the last 14 years. I feel very blessed to be given the gift of creating and sharing SoulfulLiving.com with you.

And, I am VERY excited to announce that I am growing, expanding and redeveloping SoulfulLiving.com – modernizing her and giving her a long-overdue makeover! The website will have many exciting new features, in addition to an abundance of wonderful new content and wisdom from all of our authors.

I am very excited about this project and look forward to YOU being a big part of her redevelopment. Thank you so much for joining me on this awesome journey!

If you would like to read a little more about the creation of SoulfulLiving.com, I hope you'll read my essay, "Living Your Truth."

Thank you so much for being a part of SoulfulLiving.com. It is a blessing and an honor to be given the gift of presenting SoulfulLiving.com to you. Cheers to the redevelopment and Grand Reopening of our All New SoulfulLiving.com! Let’s celebrate!!

With love and gratitude,
Valerie Rickel
