2025, my human age finally caught up with my soul age slow dancing to midlife lessons of grief and grace, rupture and repair, and the marriage myth.
Of light at the end of a dark spiritual tunnel after almost seven very long years navigating “The Wall” in preparing (and ready) to enter the second half.
“Where Am I?” Deep in transition embracing unknowns and beauty in slow living, live simply and surrendered joy holding shalom amidst sorrow.
Deconstructing ‘counting the cost’, global missions and the ordinaries as I beheld His invitation, asking, “Will you steward an alabaster jar for Me?”
“Hmm”, he took my boarding pass, “let me just upgrade you to business class.” I was at the boarding gate and I was in a blur. It was all somewhat chaotic.
The “plan” had always been to work as a consultant at a big four. But the spontaneous creative soul in me was a bigger force.
I woke up on the first day of 2005 — the twentieth year of my existence — in an overnight train from Adelaide to Melbourne. I felt like I had conquered something big.
