Simply Wild!
What a remarkable community we built during our time in the wilds. I continue to be impressed by how simply spending time, often in silence, attending to the unfolding moments builds not only connection to place, but connection to others. I can thank
us all for our courage to be open, intimate, and show up for ourselves, each other, and "this one wild and precious" place we call Big Sur. We co-created this together. May the simple and wild threads of our deepest moments weave seamlessly into the fabric of our lives.

As you read this now, I invite
you to pause for a moment as though you have just heard the ringing of
the bell on the trail... and for the next three breaths... I invite
you to open your awareness and attend to whatever arises. May we all be "idle and blessed."
With a warm heart, two claps, deep bow,
Steven
