Hello,Though I have not posted for many months it is not as if I have forgotten about this ethereal space:) I suppose it is just one of the realities of living in the aftermath of such an intense experience; time and space intervene, edges are smoothed and refined, distances increase, yet memories stir beneath it all.
Since I last posted I have continued to reflect on the experience of being in the Holy Land last year, while all the while making room in my life for new experiences, new learnings, and the tension of welcoming the new and holding on to the past. As much as this might sound like an excuse to avoid blogging, it is more a sad reflection of the reality of life.
Still, many images of Israel and Palestine remain poignantly fresh in my memory. Pictures and words, voices and smells, sights... It was amazing!
Now, as I prepare for a few more formal presentations, I am experiencing a call back to this blogspot; a call to continue sharing stories and insights. I hope that you will welcome the chance to return to this journey. Stay tuned for more songs, a collection of poems and some specific responses to some of the books I've had the chance to explore...
Blessings,
Rob.
