| setting for the Living Education Retreat |
I am full. Full of amazement, gratitude. Another Living Education Retreat has come and gone, along with the nicest bunch of kindred spirits in the world. Blessed. Thanking God for putting me on this particular path.

Here is a poem I shared during our morning meditation on Friday while overlooking the prairie.

We talked about how, even though it was a “get-away”, we should treat it more like a “going-to” – of forward moving toward more fully implementing education as a life. As we slowly understand this sacred task of educating children, we will take the lessons from the sessions, the smiles and tears of the friends, and the thoughts and inspiration that we gained over the weekend and let it all become part of who we are and what we do.

I loved reading about it last year, and sounds like it was just as delightful this time!
you guys are all so lucky. 🙂
Yes!"Gratitude is a scattered and homeless love"- I wrote that down in the "notes" of my heart and am so glad you posted it here so that I can copy it down in ink somewhere. Seeing things in clearer focus after being in the wide open prairie. Beautiful place and beautiful people. :o)
And you were part of all that, Tina. So thankful we are now friends IRL! Tell Sally I enjoyed getting to know her, too. I do hope we see both of you next year, if not before. Cause, well, I'm up to something else real soon…stay tuned…
From joy to joy,
Nancy
So very glad that it went well. I could tell you many things from the Childlight and the weddings that didn't but noone knew! Praying for the fruit to explode into beautiful harvests from whence those ladies came from.
Love the poem!
Thank you, Bonnie. Yes, praying for the fruit to explode. Well said.
From joy to joy,
Nancy
