What is it about flying for hours over the ocean that has me so reflective? I’m a long ways away from everyone I love, and moving further still at a high rate of speed. And yet the moon I see reflected in the water below is also shining back home. The world is a big place, and it is tempting to feel small and insignificant in the face of such vastness. But somehow I manage to remember the truth – that each of us are intimately and intrinsically connected to all that is, and none of us are insignificant. No distance or speed or midnight pondering can ever change that truth. Who I am matters! And the same is true for you. I’m setting off on a big adventure, perhaps to allow this lesson to take root and transform me in some deep and powerful way. Maybe it takes flying across an ocean and walking across a country to find my way home to myself. I guess I’m about to find out.
