New Year! Your beautiful reflection on hospitality has lingered with me over the past month--there was so much in it that resonated for me and took me deeper in my own musings and questions about hospitality and how (and whether) I offer it. I continually live with the gifts and challenges of the dance between solitude and community, and how to move back and forth across that threshold. Lovely to see "The Guest House" here; this poem was my introduction to Rumi, a bunch of years ago, and the beginning of a long love affair with his work. I really want to lift up the way that you offer hospitality in cyberspace and to offer my gratitude for this. In the rather ethereal medium of cyberspace, your blog is a real space of beauty and power that offers sanctuary to those of us who need what you provide here. It is no small thing, the welcome you give us here. So here, on the heels of the Feast of St. Brigid (who said, "Every guest is Christ") and the Feast of Candlemas, know that I am thankful for the light that you continually leave burning in the window of this house named Anchors and Masts. Blessings to you in this season! Tess–Happy (continued!) New Year!
