My regular readers will have noticed that i’ve not published anything for a few weeks now and I wanted to thank you all for your patience. I’ve been fighting some pretty big fires and it has felt right to give myself permission to choose an easier way of being. Years ago, I would have struggled on regardless, which would have meant taking less care of myself, or even no care. So although I had some feelings and thoughts about not writing, it’s been OK. I am OK. And now I’m back at it and ready to share more of my wonderings with you all.

Motivational speaker Jim Rohn coined the phrase “you are the average of the 5 people you spend the most time with” and i’ve been thinking about this for a while.
