This is lovely, I enjoy your post very much. I feel they are guided greatly by spirit and are the Universes way of sending me signs when I need them. Thank you. :)
Thank you for your kind words, Runa. Isn't a wonderful thing when messages appear to us in synchronicity? I'm grateful that you connected with my words. Thanks for reading Spirit.
Sarah, thanks for this post. I have just returned from 3 weeks at our place in the Davis Mountains, where I always use the time to rest, read, walk, draw a little and reflect a bit. We are pretty much alone, George and I, and the pace is slow and quiet. I love it for the first 2 or so weeks, and then I find that I need to connect (with someone other than George, with all due love) and hasten my pace. I call this the "heebie jeebies." My pattern is that I have a day of the heebies, and then I settle down for the rest of our stay. It does make me grateful for our mountain place and grateful for our home and life in Corpus Christi.
Phyllis, thank you for sharing this. I love how you're able to express your awareness of the different phases/paces that you experience. Your time in the mountains sounds like a very special period to be mindful and present. And how wise to give the discomforting heebie jeebie feelings such an evocative name. I find that naming feelings is so important. Right now I'm reading Brene Brown's new book Atlas of the Heart, which is all about naming and describing feelings. Thanks for reading Spirit.
What a lovely reflection to start the new year. After many months of enclosure and magnification, I recently had a burst of emergence. Wham, it was time to let my work free upon the world. Looking forward to your book!
How wonderful that your work is going out into the world! I wonder if this insect cycle metaphor still holds up the deeper we might look into the science of insects. Or why certain insects like cicadas and butterflies capture our imaginations more than others.

I too am a big Kazantzakis fan. I've read Zorba and The Lat Temptation of Christ.
