Muffled consciousness. Distant rumblings behind closed door. Ease into morning.
Fierce wind pummels the unsettled soul. Sleepless agitation. Grief.
This is so beautiful and timely. Thank you.
I am grateful for you, Brother David, and this website. It sets my intention for the day and for that I am deeply grateful.
