I am so honored to have been to your seminar this month, where I met many new friends there. We, Cliff and I, gave Christina a ride home after 4 glorious days in Eugene. She had an accident on her way to Wings, and said she was going to rent a car to get home. We offered, and she accepted, the ride home. Wonderful lady!! Your loving presence and dedication to what you inspire to each and every one of us. We ARE alive, healthy, loved, connected, and living in the NOW! Looking forward to Cross Over where I will continue to dance in the sunshine! Loving, gratefully, and respectfully, Alice S Kris, your ” GRATITUDE” Seminar really hit home this morning!!!

I have just changed jobs and have used the exercises from cross over to keep me focused on the choices I have made and my commitment to those choices. Thanks Eric Kris,

Enjoyed watching your blog and found myself getting centered as I tend to jump into the fray without much thought on what I want out of life... Tending to one's own needs seems to always get stuffed on the back burner and I am dedicating this day to doing what I want to say yes too. Thanks for you being you, Most Sincerely, T.

I am so very thankful to be alive. Yesterday I had AAA tow my pick-up truck back to my home near Prineville from Stayton where the tow company had it secured from the motor vehicle accident I had March 2 on the Santiam Highway. The ''other' insurance company is not accepting any responsibility because apparently the other driver claims that I was in his lane when he crashed into me -- which is incorrect. So I had my truck brought home. When I was out looking at it yesterday, I just started crying becuase it is incredulous that I made it through the accident alive. I am so thankful and appreciative that God let me live. When I looked at the truck that has served me so well over the years, it protected me even in the torsion of the impact. I am amazed at the disfigurement of the truck from the driver's door to the gaping hole in the rear quater, the undercarriage completely disattached and the gas tank pushed in. What a miracle that the truck did not break in half, a miracle that the gas tank didn't rupture and explode, a miracle that I was not crushed in the passenger seat. I am so thankful. I was protected. The seatbelt held me and although I have some spinal injuries and concussion, I am getting medical treatment to recover. Being in the seminar immediately afterward, with the back brace on, helped me to focus, be still, and get myself together somewhat. I am struggling severely with the idea of vulnerability. I do not see how choosing to be vulnerable can help one to be strong. The idea of it almost makes me hyperventilate and want to run. I choose protection. I visualize an invisible bubble around me that keeps me from harm. I feel sad that I have encountered a situation where externally, integrity is failing -- and the truth was not reported, and yet, I am so grateful and thankful to be able to walk and breathe and still think to some degree. As much as I loved my truck, I can only remember it's great service to me, the proud lines of its design and its holding me in with the seatbelt during impact. I'm not sure that my truck is an inanimate object. When I got home, my horses sensed a difference in me and stood quietly meeting my gaze. The strongest, but most sensitive one walked up and gently leaned toward me so I could touch his cheek and feel his great power and strength. Drifter has never done that before. His spirit is like that of his mother, who was a wild horse whom I had adopted from the BLM and bred to my Morgan stallion. Some freinds have come over to help me feed the horses and walk the dogs -- for which I am grateful. It is my hope and desire that I can get 'back in the saddle" quickly -- there is so much life to live. I thank you for the most wonderful seminar -- and to be able to meet some of the finest people. Alice and Cliff brought me home -- Lindsey helped me get around in Eugene, and the two ladies I met, Claire and Teri, who let me stay at their home were both so helpful and supportive. I feel loved. I am truly blessed -- a bucketful and running over.... Christina Lilienthal Kris — I do believe I could have written that blog for you this morning. I am so very thankful to be alive.

Gratitude was wonderful. This is the first blog I've had a chance to listen to. I live in gratitude, and in abundance, but there are times I feel something is missing. Today I found it. ME. I have a busy life and tend to keep my self busy even when I don't have to. Some days are very productive and others are not. It has been easy to stay disconnected. Now I will choose to be present. Now I will slow down and find many other things I cna be grateful for. One thing I am hugely grateful for is Chris, who loves what she does and shares so much of herself with others.

I didn't even have my high school diploma! I had been born and raised in the same small town and had spent much of the previous 20 years very isolated at home....I had literally never driven more than 60 or so miles away from my home on my own before! Gratitude? I was too much of an INSECURE SCARED VICTIM (ugh!) to be grateful! Today, I am in college full time, in a wonderful (healthy and loving) relationship, and am doing things in life that I only dreamed of someday doing...last weekend, thanks to the inspiration of a fellow Wings friend, I went SKYDIVING! All on my own, a gift to myself....because I'm alive and I CAN! Thank you Kris for the incredible work you're doing! I'm sure you only hear a small portion of the ripple effect of the impact on people's lives from what you teach!
