What beautiful, honest writing! I’ll be sticking around. ☺️ I too want to learn to listen to deep time, and follow its currents. It takes a lot of unlearning.

Thank you so so much, Andrea! Please feel welcome to stick around as long or short as you need to :) And yes, this state of being in a deeper time demands that we leave behind many concepts, habits, and expectations and allow ourselves to simply be with it. It's a difficult but worthy effort.

Best of luck on your journey!

dear justyna,

thank you for this writing and for that baby goat pic!

this really resonates:

"I realise I have treated time as my commodity once again. As something taken, and not a gift.

...

I forgot it is not about me at all, this life. That I am but an evanescent creature. Like a pine cone, formed to life to fall apart, piece by piece, leaving behind quality seeds. I forgot that the time enables me, not the other way around."

beautiful! thank you so much for sharing!

love

myq
