This season is deeply challenging and transformational for me…
16 years ago, my father passed away during Christmas…
At that time, the months, weeks, and days leading up were filled with grief and hardship.
This year, the grief surfaced in a new way…
In a big way, I know it’s from some major life shifts.
It’s been a lot, and the transformation has been swift.
As many of you know, I have entered a big new beginning:
New home…
New relationship…
New 7 teachings group starting…
New version of myself…
All of this has asked me to open up more deeply, let go more fully, and allow love in on a whole new level.
And it’s from a new level of intimacy that has opened up with my beloved, Katie…
Something happened to me when I opened my heart to her.
All the fears of vulnerability, loss, and hurt opened up too…
They opened to be purified and cleansed, and brought back into love.
A deep love and intimacy, blessed by the Most High, is a special gift…
This holiday has been a blessed one…
Full of new levels of love, healing and integration.
Sharing it with Katie and welcoming her into my family & world has been deeply rewarding and unique.
I am grateful for my life, my beloved Katie, my mother who carried my brother and I when our world fell apart, my family, my friends and community, and for all the opportunities to serve.
This year, in a deeply tender and loving way, I am grateful for my father… For what he taught me in life and in death.
