Who saw Marianne Williamson in Toronto this weekend at the Metro Toronto Convention Centre?
I just went to a conference this weekend and one of the highlights was definitely the ethereal, benevolent, and very enlightened Marianne Williamson. She talked about prayer in a way I haven't heard before and made the notion of aging seem fun and light and even a little sexy if that's possible. I loved when she talked about the poem about the man resting his weary, aching bones and how she could never relate to that line until she got older and finally understood, and couldn't wait to get inside and rest her aching bones. There were so many moments and I can't wait to start reading her latest book, The Age of Miracles: Embracing the New Midlife. I also want to read her book Everyday Grace.
You can listen to her on Oprah and Friends every day and if you click on the link, you can catch some of the interview she did on Oprah. I'd love to hear your favourite moment from the conference. Or did you see Marianne Williamson somewhere else in the United States or Canada? What were the highlights for you? Would love to hear from you, especially moms who are in their forties, and are approaching that that miraculous age. What do you love about getting older?

Hello, nice site....I have been and still am a student of A Course In Miracles for 15 yrs. Marianne Williamson's 1st book "A Return To Love" was my intro and changed my life. I too am a Mom - of 4 teens, I'm in my 40's and seriously, if I hadn't had the benefit of Marianne's teaching of ACIM thru thees years on cassette, her various books etc. I'm not sure I would have survived! I attended one of her seminars at Learning Annex in Toronto several years ago - a nice intimate setting it was... Anyway for some reason I felt compelled to reach out and post. I was actually seeking Marianne Williamson's site and bumped into yours.... :)
Peace, Kelly
