Friend Appreciation Day
(I know this isn’t a warm weather entertaining tip, but that will come.)
I just wanted to say that over the past few years my professional life has been with a significant number of people who didn’t think I did enough for them and didn’t think I was enough for them. This is a tough industry to be inside.
The past month, I’ve been surrounded by folks outside of that who think I am enough, and that I do enough and they encourage me to grow.
And it’s made all the difference.
So thanks, thanks, thanks to all of you who say,
“Helen Jane, you are enough and let’s grow together.”
Because it’s quite seriously changed my life.

Bravo for you and your supportive friends. Did you ever sing that round (song) in Girl Scouts? “Make new friends, and kee-eep the-ee old; One is silver and the other gold.” Trite but true.
first, you are more than enough my dear and i wish we could grow together! maybe it’s a good thing i live so far away because i’d totally be stalking you.
second, anne! oh no. now i’m going to have that song in my head for hours! whenever we played that at daycare, it took forever to get unstuck. that and “this is the song that never ends, it just goes on and on my friends…” ooph.
“Helen Jane – you are enough and let’s grow together”. It will be great fun.
Screw them, that industry you’re in.
I know some of them and they are incredibly insecure, not to mention narcissistic. If this wasn’t a family blog, I’d even say they are suffering from Tiny Dick Syndrome.
You are more than more than enough, HelenJane!
you are infinitely more than enough. you are perfect right now just the way you are. i think you are amazing and i only know a little bit about you
i also love you blog. keep up the writing! its great. nice to meet your other half today 
Yay for the last month. I hope it keeps up.
My ex used to regularly remind me how I was not doing enough for him and how I was not enough. It took me forever to realize – “It’s not ME, it is HIM.”
Like Suebob says about her ex, “it’s not (you), it’s (them)!”
I’m glad you’re getting the support and huzzahs you need from somewhere.
You rock!
Look at me I am blogging! Natalie and I are in Minneapolis for Target meetings…good times!
