and i appreciate how your voice, Sophie's, Sulieka Juouad's and others are bringing a new awareness to chronic illness...moving beyond old medical models. so needed.
Thanks Becky . Having dealt with a life threatening illness since mid 2023 l understand the isolation, the need for meditation and personal spiritual understanding this brings into one's life. It can be a lonely experience as one uncovers the deepest parts of oneself and as you wrote- not having the words (because there are none) to express the depths of that journey. On another level it is a good time to release that which doesn't matter, set
priorities in terms of what does
and give up old energy draining habits.
Wishing you and Steven a blessed 2025. Thanks again for your writings which not only resonate with me but lmsure many many others. 🙏🦋🌺❤️
thank you for this tender and honest post. and also the wonderful assortment of resources.

please take gentle care of your tender heart.
Thank you so much!
Oh yes. My son and Sophie were roommates in Upstate NY. I visited for a couple of weeks. She’s prolific. 💫
i love how small our big world is...

Here is a link to the song derived from the opening quote you posted. Called the work of Christmas. https://youtu.be/ZfZwNe8k8yU?si=GJcPLx5W37h8h8mk
The musical score fits the words beautifully
Thanks for that. I’ll never heard it put to song before. Surprised the author
Isn’t credited (that I could see) but very lovely arrangement and singing.
