From Family to Community

Dealing with the loss of family either through death or children growing up is or can be difficult.

The connections we have made are so intense.

We want reassurance even through new worlds are opening up.

Using the old connection techniques which are no longer available obviously does not work.

The old “give and take” does not work.

What does work is discovering how to give more.

Listening for the unique ways you have to give is the first step.

As you always have something to give, you can then listen for the connections to share it.

Your sense of giving will determine where you are led and how willingly you are received.

It will open the world of your deeper identity.

You will find connections that are totally different from “family”, but which are enduring and appreciative and responsive and deeply fulfilling in other ways.
