I Love These Guys
I arrived on Iona on June 6th and am still trying to settle in. There is a lot to absorb, but it promises to be a really great experience already...
I actually had an entire post done...and then the fire alarm in the Abbey went off and we all had to go outside. I forgot to hit "Save" before shutting my laptop. :(
The weather has been outstanding. I have taken some beautiful walks and met some wonderful people. Right from the beginning it seems to fold you in bit by bit.
There have been highs and lows...not unhappiness, mind you. I think it's because Iona is a place that gets down deep inside and pulls out what's meant to emerge. It takes a lot of energy. It's an unfolding...but I've found a dramatically gentle transformation. If that makes any sense.
I helped make sticky toffee pudding and the sauce.That was fun :)
I have had moments of worry...seeing as I have no plans other than to be here.
Clearly, though, here is where I need to be.
