Over the past few weeks I have noticed a common theme coming up over and over again. The theme, as I understand it, is ORDER. Not like I should be ordering more things, or making orders or receiving orders, rather it is about how we (or how I) order my life.
This again is a practice, and one that I will not get exactly "right". But to have the guide of order I find that I can accomplish more. I believe that we each have our own sense of order, AND that when we come together in communities there is a sense of order and when all people are not following the same order, we notice that something feels off or is out of place.
So how do we create order in our own lives, homes, spaces AND comfortably move in to the order of communal spaces? It is a regular learning, and leaning in to communication and relationship building. Yes, relationship building. because we are creatures of relationships. We depend understand ourselves best when we see how we are in relation to others. Not that we have to change to be like everyone else, but that we adjust to be able to be in "communion" (sharing of thoughts or feelings on mental and spiritual levels) We might also call this "togetherness"
When we claim to be "lonely" it is often over the absence of togetherness. We need one another. So how can we claim that reality as we age? Or really at anytime in
