Thank you for the words you found in this, for sharing your thoughts. I've been pondering much of it. So much is familiar. A few years ago, we "escaped" to Salmon, Idaho, for a variety of reasons I suspect you'd understand--very little gentrification here... yet. We make and create and fix and suffice and over time have been largely restored. Basically, without realizing it, we began our lives anew. A beautiful result of living deliberately, as you so nicely described it, is how it heightens awareness even as it is grounding. It has brought me much nearer to feeling synchronous and reflective and accepting in every moment. I hope the same has been true for you.
