The Invitation again...

today i realized i had not copied all of The Invitation in the previous entry. I bought the book and just opened it. so i added the remainder of the prose if you'd like to revisit it again.....
in the meantime, i have been busy still. seemingly it's too busy. i've been caught in the reference of time which doesn't exist. i've been entangled with my crew with issues of the job. i've been losing myself again only to find myself again in but a moment. i feel overdue for a road trip and will adventure soon. i fall to my knees and pray daily which comforts my soul knowing that God is with me every moment every day. i cuddle with my dogs longing for simpler days long past and i wonder where am i going next. i know this is the journey but sometimes the hard endures more than i'd like. i know i am a work in progress but where am i progressing to? i feel like i've lived many lifetimes in just this one and no end in sight. goodness, i wonder, what is next? i see the children playing, laughing and ask isn't there a simpler way to live like on a mountain top? my spiritual journey is changing and there seems more work to do. i ask myself what doors did i open within this realm and where is it leading me. it all feels like work to me but where is the joy and laughter to go along with it? spring is just around the corner. i'm only in winter's slumber dreaming the dream to be reached. better days are before me as is today from those past. but for now i stay in the moment and learn each new task.
The Invitation by Oriah Mountain Dreamer is a book. i'm just beginning it and hope for new insight. with what little i've read already, i recommend this book. it includes the prose in the previous entry. my journey is new right now and i have no idea what i've gotten myself into. It is all good. i have no doubt this book will give me a glimpse into the now. i'm going to be having some fun soon. don't know what, but i'll think of something. for now, i laugh for all the crazyness that seems to be, for truly this is but a dream.

it sounds very interesting. I hope things settle down for you so you can take a road trip and get some R and R.
