Thank you for the image of the leaves blowing in your brain wind....and for sharing this tender time with us. Bless your tears and dissolving and questions and especially -- your great big heart.

It is such a gift to love what you love. Prayers continue daily.

Love to you all!
Kudos to Isaiah for knowing exactly the right thing to do for you and doing it! Please say hi to him for us.

Oh Michael, how brave and wise of you to move toward relationships, emotions, and imagination at this time. I hear your deep love for Jenny and Isaiah and Grace. What a gift to them, to us all, that you can express that love from the heart. Thank you.

Pushing through cobwebs
emerging in love's embrace.
Deep summer water.

You are still making meaning of the leaves. Your creations at breathtaking. Tell your brain “good job,” from me. It doesn’t need to work any harder than it is to make beauty that touches us all.

Michael, I treasure your communications, because I treasure your heart and spirit, both of which shine through vividly, even though it is getting harder for you to organize your thoughts. Blessings to you, and the peace of the river.

Hang in there, my friend! God is speaking to us all through your amazing spirit & family❣️

Michael, I was with Betsy in a SURJ-MN meeting later yesterday. In fact, she was late to the meeting so she could write down & send you her memory of the time with you earlier in the day. I felt a little closer to you, hearing her story about her visit. I'm joyful that you wrote this, with help from Jenny, and am holding Grace, Isaiah, Jenny and you in my tenderest hearts.

Michael — After reading the words that you, with Jenny’s support, wrote about your seizure, I am picturing a river. One bank of the river is characterized by loss of control and fear; the other bank of the river is characterized by love and surrender. And in between those two banks is a whole lot of water flowing by -- changing moment to moment -- just a steady flow of uncertainty and not-knowing. I am so grateful, my friend, that you get to rest every once in awhile on the shore of love and surrender, because I can only imagine that the shore of fear is very compelling.
Thanks for reminding me that love is possible even in the scariest of circumstances.
