“Be Still and Go Home!” was a bolt from the blue "commandment" that hit me over the head while I was out camping in an effort to get myself sorted out and back in a good state of mind following a series of events that had triggered anger and fear and grief. I was feeling the weight of all the hard edges at play in our world right now, combined with the frustration of dealing with a loved one who needs a lot of help but often resists and battles the help I try to give. I went out to Mamma Earth for a bit of a retreat and self-care, and got some guidance I hadn’t been expecting about just what “Coming Home” means. I hope sharing this story and the insights and ideas that poked through will be useful in helping us all to navigate this wild ride that is our human part of the journey and some of the trickier “classrooms” life presents so that we can “go home” to truth more often and easily.
