I have been in this state for 2yrs now through grieving. It naturally takes you to a place with the

least chaos/noise. The nervous system can't tolerate it. It is the blessing of grief. Sitting in it, seeing

everything you have blocked or turned an eye away from. Truths about all that is, come to the surface and cannot be ignored any longer. Truths about the people in your life also, about yourself.

It must be cleared to allow for what comes next. I am curious to see how this goes for you. It is not easy my friend.

Sit in it, feel it, let go.

I recently walked through 2 years of lament. It was the most painful thing I ever experienced, but I have grown immensely.

One thing that emerged was an overwhelming grief for what Christ went through on the cross, for me. Not so much for His pain (although that is heavy enough); it was understanding His lament at feeling separated from His Father, and knowing that my sins caused His lament, something far worse than physical pain.

Sending hugs to all those who need it.🙏🏼💕

The best thing that ever happened to me was having my X account permanently disabled for not following the "rules". I think it must have been hacked? I am a 69 year old lady with not so much as a traffic ticket in my life. I don't have tv. The last few months of the news that I can find online was so disturbing, I stopped watching and reading it. I walk my dogs many times a day. I meditate and knit..do my chores and am at peace. I live in a tiny town in Idaho..blissfully removed from the chaos.

Very close to it. I highly recommend living in a tiny town of like minded kind people. I am interested in your experience with quiet. Thank you for everything you write.

I am excited to try this... we are so flooded with noise and information... I know it'll be revealing!

all of man's problems originate inside four walls and a roof. the internet breaks down buildings faster than erosion, war and bombs.

Read the Great Invocation Prayer on the full moon day/night. See Gene Ang online for how to do it, I think it will help all.
