I stack and track habits to find flow!
In religious contexts, grace is sometimes in the same conversation with freedom: ‘grace will set you free’ and ‘by grace, you have been saved’ are both in the Bible. And when I think of freedom, I consider some huge, game-changing words. Emancipation. Liberation. Removal from restrictions. In addition to some religious questions, I also dive…
It’s May 20th: hail has shifted to snow. My space heater whirs to life. (I wore a dress and sandals yesterday.) I’ve been writing letters, sipping elderberry tea all night.
