“Because I was at war.” Resistance to what is creates the suffering. Not the pain. Pain is pain. I find who I am by who I am not. As usual, we’re on the same page. I think it’s where we land at a certain stage in the process.
I do, too. There’s a end point. When enough of your water is under the bridge, you finally understand there was never any reason to try and change the course of the river. I think there are more of us than we know.
I'm still tingling with excitement from the energy that rises from these words. Acceptance, vision, and surrendering our stories have always seemed so individual to me, so personal. From this vantage point after having just read your essay, surrendering our stories seems as broad as the Stars.
Thanks. I don’t know if enjoy is the right word for a darkness retreat, but I’m sure it will be benificial. Might not be good until it’s over…. hahaha she laughed nervously.

Another great 'ramvling' and perhaps that's what we need more of - insights rather than insults.
Agreed. Fighting does not create peace. Simple.
Center and listen to your heart. It's such a clear and simple way to love ourselves and share love with the world.
To live in community and take care of one another. Thank you for your words and may your retreat be filled with peace.
I have no doubt it’s happening. I only wonder how long it will take. Will I live to see it? I’m betting I will.
I bet you will as well!
Another jewel, as always!
Thanks, Tom.

Yes! Cultures grow like individuals do. It just takes longer.
It's occurring to me that it's arrogant to think otherwise!
Yes, and it's also a way to opt out of trying.
"Take care of what you have been refusing to tend to." Thank you for responding, and may you enjoy your coming "withdrawal" when it's time.
