Beautiful Steve.....love the phrase about "nagging friends" that seem to tag along to silence and stillness and solitude. oh to just move through the days without evening knowing what day it is or what time it is.....only time MJ and I experience that is in extended trips, which must be at least 10 days in duration just to untangle and detox from the matrix. keep going, my friend.....

"I feel the tiredness of it all." Yes- me too. And many others. But most see no other way to live (and many days I as well do not). That this is just how life is and must be. But the "more generous invitation" calls to us- if we will quiet ourselves enough to hear. Thank you for the reminder to listen for that, and to sit close to the flow in freedom and rest!

I'm glad you got that line "I feel the tiredness of it all." It's all enough to sink a battle ship--all we've gone through in the last few years in particular, not to mention our personal stuff we navigate on a day to day basis. I'm convinced we all need to discover, perhaps again the "easy yoke" promised us. I'll be talking about this at the Come Before Winter retreat...how we exchanged the easy for the "burden of belief" and what we need to do to wear the easy yoke again. Jared, as I watch you in life, I am watching you shed the old yoke --one section at a time--one level at a time. The shedding of the old and finding the new is indeed the gospel, I am thinking. I think we all need saving again in every way. When I watch people like you, I am so encouraged knowing that the shedding and finding is possible and that you're actually really doing it is amazing. Thank you for responding.
