Hi Open, the weather here in Cape Breton Canada is and has shown that it is time for change. For the last couple of years here the winds from the east coast are stronger and more frequent, sea level a little higher and the trees in the woods are falling liking dominos. I have only shoveled snow 3 times this year so far which is a big change. I was in the woods the other day and the snow level was none. The water table will be a lot lower here this year. Temperatures are jumping from some of the lowest to the highest in a single day. -16 to +14 in less than 24 hrs or from +10 to -14. In a parking lot here a couple of dozen car were first flooding then frozen by a flash freeze. I would like to say, do not be afraid of change, it is coming.

Funny thing is this year I have tapped a few maple trees for the first time and because of the weather there will be a double run. WOW

Open, you said, "Hope is no longer then necessary. Because we find our eternal nature, that transcends all; from which the soul emerges, integrates and strengthens., We need to find plenty of courage now - courage to let go and surrender into truth.Then we'll discover the majestic emergence of that which is beyond all this - our cosmic selves." Thank you for finding the words I could not.

I am so blessed to going through this change with the awareness of it.

I will remain open, Open {lol}

Much Love
