Friday, this weekend, and today are all about care for elders and the LGBTQ Quaker retreat, mostly.
I've not had much time to do much more as i've led communications for the retreat and ...
OH FOR CRYING OUT LOUD I JUST RECEIVED ANOTHER REGISTRATION WTF Buttercup.
Exhale.
Anyhow, i want to record that i am clear that i should be writing to the meeting that holds my membership and ask for release. I need the space of waiting worship that is not part of the practice at Spring. They are working on issues of race, which i respect, but i don't think it would be pushing me as far as i want to be pushed. I think i could find better communities in which to work on antiracisim if that is what i am called to do as i have time for another community beyond here and my family and work. (I still feel very called to plants and ecosystem; while this is not an either/or, the both/and has the limit of my capacity.)
Meanwhile, the siren of "Behind! Behind! Behind!" is still screaming at me because there has been little time to get in order. I have missed your writing; i don't know when i will catch up -- or if i can. Good news is i have kept some of my morning rhythms going during these days -- it's just the computer time has been spent on the retreat.
