i love this.
A smiling face is half the meal. --Latvian Proverb
we're having another seva cafe 3.0 meeting this saturday to discuss giving and generosity, and what that will look like in our next installment of this experiment. there are so many new things we can try and directions we can go
this is really difficult and painful for me to say, because i have SO much love for it
but sharing my challenges and struggles honestly is vital to my own process
the reality is that i'm done. i burnt out, in a bad way. to be fair, several personal factors acted as a catalyst but in retrospect it was all a good thing, i needed those things to happen so that i could go even deeper.
meechy posted this awesome grey's anatomy quote that i love, it's been helping me in so many different parts of my life, and i will re-post it here. it might help you as well
"The joy supposedly is in the giving, so when the joy is gone, when the giving starts to feel more like a burden, that's when you stop. But if you're like most people I know, you give till it hurts, and then you give some more."
i've been asking myself questions like where do i go from here. what am i trying to do, am i contributing to that purpose or am i doing it just to do it. do i need to have a different approach, what would that be. should i step back. is it time to go.
the answers will come, this is another opportunity to practice patience
