    Good Morning Dillon,

    At this moment, I too am in a calm spot in my life. Reading about the Dark Night of the Soul now, didn’t resonate as well as if I were in a crisis or depression. I certainly don’t want to stir up anything:0

    The friendship/relationship piece is a good reminder to me to make the time…no agenda…to find the joy in…[Read more]

    Good Morning, Having resisted journaling in the past, find it interesting how the act of writing does seem to open a floodgate of thoughts and feelings. The angry/sad/anxious/glad questions seem to be directed at myself and my choices. Especially in terms of people to submit myself to. (Anger at myself and other) The sense that… if I serve…[Read more]

    Thank you Abbot Dan for your welcome. I’m looking forward to this journey. Thank you again for creating a welcoming and easy to follow format. As one who overcomplicates virtually everything… this is refreshing to just put one foot in front of the other as your guidelines lead.

    Blessings, carol

    Good Morning Dillon, Your candor is an encouragement to me to take time to ponder the questions and not just “finish the assignment” for the sake of “checking off a box”. I also found that looking at one symptom intertwined with others. Thank you.

    Good Morning,

    First, Thank you for your clear instructions in navigating the 3 books. I was a bit overwhelmed at first.

    The 2 main symptoms I live are: 2. Ignoring the emotions of anger, sadness and fear and 7. spiritualizing away conflict.

    Good Morning again, I have received the books. (should there be a DVD??) I noticed that I do overcomplicate in getting myself prepared with notebooks etc…. Reminded of a scripture heard years ago from The Living Bible version of Ecclesiastes 11:4 “If you wait for perfect conditions you will never get anything done.”

    Good Morning, Thank you for making this available. I have begun and stopped and stalled for years in following Daily Office rhythm. I do pray and study and notice God’s hand in my life…but am easily distracted…Prone to wander.
