I am teaching the Wild and Precious
This is what I wrote
“Whenever I read Mary Oliver’s question “Tell me, what is it you plan to do with your one wild and precious life?” I get this sense of urgency, a sense that I am not fully understanding preciousness and wild-ness of my life. That I am living too much on an automatic pilot and too small, echoing David Whyte’s words in the House of Belonging:
“Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet
confinement of your aloneness to learn anything or anyone that does not bring you alive is too small for you.”
Yes, in this winter darkness and cold weather confinement, I need to slow down, get off my everyday-ness and ask myself- what am I doing with my life?
Join me in this inquiry. The workshop is this Saturday, January 12,
