Wow…You took the words right out of my mouth regarding And Just Like That….You can’t push the envelope without any heart and soul. But, I too will hope Aidan and Carrie can bring it all back. 🙏🏻💙🙏🏻

Hi Allison and happy Sunday afternoon. I ordered Practicing Peace and it should arrive tomorrow. Yes I want to know too, where & why the Shenpa comes from. I’m anxious to read about it. And my shadow must be near. I feel it so. I understand what you’re saying. Richard Rohr’s series are very calming to me. Even his voice. I more than appreciate that recommendation. The song is beautiful that you featured. She has a lovely voice. Nice instrumentals & a soft flow about it. I liked it.

Your lily is so pretty and it’s exactly what I intend to plant on my hillside one because it’s beautiful and two to hold the soil. I do have some good news to share. I met my rescue dog today. 😊 Shes a 3 year old Blu Heeler. Survived this winter alone in the woods until she was found. I love her already. Will send you a picture!

Thank you Allison. I got all the goodness of your words & reminders today.

xoxo 🌺

Thank you for the book recommendation Practicing Peace. So much wisdom in such a small book! I’m carrying it with me and reading it every time I get a few minutes. Shenpa is my challenge too, but the book is helping a lot. Bless you!

I just watched “Lilies of the Field” last night, so your photo was even more special. Also, I would say you and Sissy are the sweetest peaches in Nashville!

“I am afraid that the closer we get to the Light, more of our shadow we see.”

‘Fraid I see this differently. If you’re getting closer to the Light, that means it’s *in front* of you. Consequently, your shadow is *behind* you. And the only way to see it is to turn around and look back. I take my accumulated baggage with me, sure, but I’m not turning around to look back.

Besides, I’d rather follow the philosophy of Satchel Paige - “Don’t look back. Something might be gaining on you.”

"Fear of abandonment..." You hit the nail on the head every time, AM.

So much good stuff in here! From the opening quote to beautiful peaches and Pema's pearls of wisdom, your writing shines a light on the best part of this Georgia peach's life spiritual growth! It's so cool to see how much of myself I see in your experiences, actually. Though I only met you up close once, as a fan of your artist self, it's exceptionally cool to just see the human who shares similar life struggles and can express some of those on my behalf. We're all connected! Thank you, Allison.
