Thank you, Jerry, for such affirming words. They mean much to me coming from a fellow journey-er. It is nearly my bedtime, so won't respond more now ... just peeked in and read this so did not want to go wihtout now saying, "thank you," for the affirmation.

Jerry,

I imagine it will be a lifetime task of growing, perhaps never finally, ultimately "arriving" anywhere. I think in all the sorting, we are merely taking layers off. I think the ego co-opts (I know my ego has) so much of the journey, thinking 'it' was gaining something, becoming somebody... I think this is one of the mistakes that gets made time and again. I have made it time and again.

Truly, I feel like I am only just beginning.

As I read over your words, about being tested/ challenged, time and again, I keep hearing only that Love is the answer. I keep hearing inside of me, "What would Love do?" WWJD/WWBD?

Yes, so very much more work for me to do.
