and this is mine.
retreat.. was not an emotional or spiritual high. it wasn't an epiphany. i didn't even learn anything ridiculously mind-blowing.
but it was new. it was different. it was a time that i can confidently say that was life-changing. id didn't make a complete life-changing decision. but i came out with a transformation.
the transformation involved realization, acknowledgement, an open heart, and open ears. that moment where you KNOW that going forward, something will be different. it doesn't have to be definable via words. it just has to be credited to the right source.
i talk a lot. i talk too much. how will i have an awakening if i'm not listening?
my ears must work as hard, if not harder, than my voice.
if we can walk with total understanding and dependence on grace, we can be so different. we can live so differently. we can feel something that is so unexplainable... but it wouldn't need to feel like it NEEDS to be explained.
it begins when the focus leaves the self.
awakening. that's what we need.
