I have greatly valued coming here, reading the posts and the dreams, observing the interactions (and humor) among members, all led (and gently moderated) of course by Eagle1. Ironically, you are not alone among forum moderators taking a break for September, or just being a little less active than before. And it is important to step back, when you are led. Thank you for your post here ... I almost didn't read it, but the Spirit prompted me, and I'm sure will prompt others today. Possibly you may consider sending this out on the email list, so that those who don't come daily to the NDC, will know what is happening. NDC is not Eagle1, and Eagle1 is not NDC, but your hard work (among others) has made it what it is, and there is much already for which to be grateful. Rest up, cheer up, and don't lose focus now; the news really isn't good or bad; it just is, and part of life, human life, not some manufactured life. Dorothy Day, the famed Catholic social activist, once said, "I wanted the abundant life; I did not have the slightest idea how to find it." We learn, we grow, and it finds you.
