Things are unfolding exactly in the way they should,
at the rate and timing they need.
I am learning to relax from the endless pushing,
and relax into a calm curiosity about where
the flow might go.
Rather than try to plan, I'm going to trust the process.
I need to remind myself continually to
practice "Keep it Simple".
I am getting better at it.

| Thanksgiving moment with Price |
I got a nudge this morning, to read a book that my nephew recommended
quite a ways back.
I reached out to see if he still thought it would be a good read for me.
He recommended "Chase The Lion"
by Mark Batterson instead.
"He speaks to people like us."
he added.
He wasn't wrong.
It had me at hello.
" The Lion Chaser's Manifesto"
"Quit living as if the purpose of life
is to arrive safely at death.
Run to the roar.
Set God-sized goals.
Pursue God-given passions.
Go after a dream that is destined to fail
without divine intervention.
Stop pointing out problems.
Become part of the solution.
Stop repeating the past.
Start creating the future.
Face your fears.
Fight for your dreams.
Grab opportunity by the mane
and don't let go!
Live like today is the first day
and the last day of your life.
Burn sinful bridges.
Blaze new trails.
Live for the applause of nail-scarred hands.
Don't let what's wrong with you
keep you from worshipping what's right
with God.
Dare to fail.
Dare to be different.
Quit holding out. Quit holding back.
Quit running away.
Chase the lion."
Thank you Brent.
You always guide me on the right path.
xoxo
