Dear PCN (of over 2600 subscribers),

R & R

Barb and I had a chance to spend some time up at the family farm in MI and it was really needed and a great time at that. This world seems to be spinning quicker than it did while I was working, and it seems to have a wobble or two as well. Sometimes the anxiety that seems to be so high for all kinds of reasons just gets too much. That is where I was at. I needed to look at a sunset, work on a mindless project, and sit in the woods some. I don’t know where you go to get right, but my style is to be somewhere away from the madness of speeding traffic, crushing crowds, and hectic pace. When I am at a place like that, I can find some solace and peace and have opportunity for a lot of things that helps me re-center. You know, like what is REALLY important, and what is not. What is REALLY worthwhile, and what is not. What (or Who) is REALLY worth living for and, and what is not. Sometimes I do not get reflective until the end of the year when I find a quiet place after Christmas. But this year, my moments of mediation, contemplation, worship, and introspection has all come a little early. Not expected, but very necessary. With mind, body and soul in a better place, I look forward to every day of the rest of this year. Thank you for listening to me emote. Even tough, road hard ole grandpa’s need to open up every once in awhile.

A farm of beauty, sometimes hard activity, and sometimes heavenly peace.

Mindless project.
