DnJ, thank you for all the time you spent and especially for being so careful to let me know that we were sitting at the table together with our favorite heavy cream, even if we were being filmed by the DB community for future DB lessons. : ) So I made strawberry biscuit-shortcake with whipped cream to have with our tea/coffee and conversation.
I will need to read this a few times. Usually when you give me one of your DnJ outreaches, there is a practical side that is eluding me -- I don't know how to DO what you are saying. I need to read it over to see if that is what is blocking me right now or if it is something else. There is for me a very real IRL thing at present which I have alluded to but not explained. You have always been good at reading between the lines, so you may understand that I have been allowing an erosion of certain values in action though my values in principle have not changed at all. Distractions, not real futures. A serious erosion either way.
More in a few days after I chew on your words. Gerda as Cow.
I believe I will see the bounty of the Lord in the land of the living. Wait for the Lord with courage. Be stouthearted, and wait for the Lord.
