Connecting with people and embedding yourself into the tapestry of a place. Feeling part of community. This is so important. Here’s to more a year of deeper connection, in 2022!

In a healing process. Reminding myself of that great truth: that a loving life flows; is not sought and not gripped. It comes by invitation and stays with appreciation. Nothing beautiful is hunted and captivated. Have had many small wonders in the past few weeks. Ordinary weeks by all accounts, from the outside anyway.

Just speaking and acting without any intention or thought or witnessing of myself. Sleepwalking. The feeling that my relationships are deterioratingContinueContinue reading “Moving Forth: Inhabiting Myself Better”
