Walnut Creek 11/04/2019 — Waxhaw, North Carolina
No pushing, no shoving, no forcing, no striving, 
no pretending that we know the way!
Wanting something to happen
has nothing to do with what needs to happen.

Stop. Look. Listen.

Give intuition a chance.

Assume intuition is our connection
with what is called for and needs to happen
in each situation as it arises,
and give way, stand aside,
give intuition the ball
and let her show you what she can do.

Start with what you are going to wear each day.
Allow your intuition to make the choice.
Look over your options and see what calls your name.

Do the same thing with where to go for lunch,
and what to order.

Practice letting intuition take the lead.
Be sensitive to intuition's play calling
in circumstances as they develop and see how she does--
and if she has a preference for "the gender thing."

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.
