I just wanted to say hello to all of you - and tell you that I am so happy I found this site - or rather it found me. I have already told the story of how I found Heavenletters in the introduction forum, and there is also an introduction there as well - if you want to know a little about me, then there it is :)

The idea of translating was not a conscious choice. I found myself already sending the e-mail asking if my help was needed even before I knew what I was doing. It did, however, result in some frantic mind-tangling afterwards, but then again, I am a master when it comes to mind mazes and what-ifs and what-if-nots.
Here I am starting in the wrong end again. I'll start over.

The idea of translating started in a hot tub in Atlanta, Georgia, of all places. I went to see my (not-then-yet) husband for Christmas and New-years last year. His mother is a Lightworker; Patti Conklin, who works with cellular cleansings, and is a medical intuitive. She also just got awarded with an honorary Ph.D. for her groundbreaking philosophies and work. Hoorray for her! Any way. As well as being a completely fascinating mother-in-law, she also has a hot tub. One that I immediately fell in love with. It was one of the last nights there, and we were sitting in the hot tub talking about this and that, and I was complaining (I am also very good at that, sometimes) about not knowing what my path was in life. She looked at me quite matter-of-factly and said: Well, you can be anything! Why don't you try translating, with your extensive love of languages?
And then I forgot all about it, because... Well, I am not quite sure, to be honest. I probably shrugged it off because I felt that I was not good enough, or something in that genre.

I didn't think anything more of it, until exactly two days ago, when my husband and I were walking up to my parent's farm in the mountains, a good forty minutes walk straight uphill. Or at least, that is how it feels.
We were chattering along, and I was talking about how concerned I was that I still haven't found anything that I feel like I must do. (We moved back to the forest three months ago, and I left my job as a bouncer at a biker-bar, so I am unemployed at the moment. It is all perfect, because I feel like I am meant to have this wonderful summer to myself - just me and the re-discovery of God in its own pace and place.)
He looked at me and asked me why I didn't look into translating. As he said; there are bound to be some webpages that needs translation into Norwegian, and with my love of languages it would probably be the perfect thing for me to do.
I shrugged it off, and said that I didn't really see myself happy translating some webpage about car parts, or house rentals - something that didn't MEAN anything to me. If I was to translate anything at all I didn't want to care about money, and it had to be something that made my heart sing.
He said: "Well, you don't have to care about money right now, because I make more than enough here. And you won't know what makes your heart sing until you try."

The next morning I got introduced to Heavenletters. And I had sent a request to start translating even before I realized I was doing it.

Well, this is the story so far, I hope you enjoyed my rather confusing attempt of telling you about all the coincidences that lead to this at once :)

Much love,
