Living from habitual intuition,
following our felt sense
into each situation as it arises,
seeing what's what there
and doing what needs to be done about it
with the gifts of our original nature
and our innate virtuosities
(The things we do best
and enjoy/love doing most),
is quite different
from living in the service
of avoiding what we don't want
and acquiring what we do want.

And that is the switch
that needs to be made.

We may have to think about doing it
until it becomes spontaneous/automatic/natural.

It's worth the effort.

I'm retired, and still finding my way--but now, I don't have to pretend that I know what I'm doing. I retired after 40.5 years as a minister in the Presbyterian Church USA, serving churches in Louisiana, Mississippi and North Carolina. I graduated from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, in Austin, Texas, and Northwestern State University in Natchitoches, Louisiana. My wife, Judy, and I have three daughters, five granddaughters, one great granddaughter, and a great grandson on the way, within about ten minutes from where we live--and are enjoying our retirement as much as we have ever enjoyed anything.
