Beautiful..... they are all sobeautiful...thank you, Wangmo, for the pics. BTW, have all the girls been "adopted" by sanghamates? Is there a girl I can help support ? In addition to money, can I write? Hope you are well. Glad to here that the trip will be about $2000---a lot less than I thought it might be. sending love, susan
october 12, 2006 Dear Wangmo--What wonderful writings and pictures. Miss seeing you but when I read your stories and adventures it seems like it was yesterday you were packing to leave. Keep sending the pictures and stories. See you soon-time goes so fast.
Love and hugs, Ginny

Take Two Seats, Celine Hello Wangmo,
What a wonderful entry this was. It is remarkable and kind of you, that you can still find the time and energy to update this blog. I so appreciate the pictures and information. I think of you often and reading and seeing this blog makes you seem a little less far way and brings the land of Do Khyentse Yeshe Dorje right to my doorstep(so to speak). I send love and hugs across the world to you.....susan
Amazed, again Thank you for sharing such a beautiful experience with us. Chris and I miss you terribly in Ann Arbor, but are awed and humbled by the important and amazing work you're doing in Tibet. We would also like to help with your friend's incredible project. Let us know the best way to handle donations. Lots of love, Julia.
Long time no pecan bun Hi Wangmo,
This is amazing, heartbreaking and disturbing! I'd be happy to donate some money for these girls and women. What a wonderful opportunity to really help some people. Should I put the money in your Paypal account or is there another way?I recenty discovered that Paypal takes a large percentage. Also, can I forward this link to some other people. There is always a chance that someone else will feel compelled to donate some money. You seem very critical of yourself but it sounds like your doing great.
Love, Rachel
Wow Wangmo, your adventures sound fantastic and are very inspiring - thank you for taking the time to write them out - please keep them coming! Love, Rigdzin
Wednesday Wangmo, How amazing that you are making such connections, what a great opportunity. I'm so happy for you! I hope you have continued success in your work abroad. with love, P.
ps Thanks for the funny pictures you emailed me!!
Great pictures Your pictures are worth far more than a thousand words.....thanks for all the delightful photos and equally delightful text. with love, susan
beautiful journal Wangmo, thank you for giving us this insight into your adventures. Sometimes I fell like I am right there. You could be a travel writer for National Geographic!
much love xxxooo Michael
Noah Noah is doing GRRRRREAT! He really likes Big Kitty and Max and has thoroughly investigated all parts of 612 North Main. He would like to explore the great outdoors, but this hasn't happened yet. He does get to sit by the open (cracked-open) window and smell the breezes. He is a really sweet PRINCE and I am so glad to have him here.
Great Writing Thanks for taking time to describe your experiences. You are a great writer and, sitting here in Ann Arbor, it is good to learn more about this other world.
amazing truly amazing travels. i just started to follow you today. you are so strong and courageous. hang in there. follow your dreams. i'm so glad to be back in touch. love, susan
Faith, etc. Stephannie, I feel so privileged to be able to glimpse inside your experiences. It's so easy for me to fall into a pattern much like the one you described and to believe the my life is filled with "hardships." I admire so much your journey and your courage. I'm learning so much just by reading your journals and am so grateful that you're sharing all of this with us. I think you're an amazing woman. Thanks for being in my life!
hurt pedestrian How awful! What a terrible obstacle to happen at the beginning of your trip!
Do you know if the person was ok? I am assuming you are...
With love,
Meech
