Finally I managed to change my photograph to a more recent one. It was taken almost exactly a year ago at the end of the last retreat held at the Priory in Edmonton. Many thanks to Michael who skillfully managed to overcome my resistance to being photographed and then was able to put me at my ease. Thank you, and thank you Edmonton people I think of you all often.
It is almost one year since I ceased being the Priory in Edmonton. This is from a posting I did on June 17th, 2006 titled Moving Right Along.
We are moving on.
We are moving into new territory.
We are moving deeper than our fears of the future.
We are moving past what has gone.
We are MOVING and the day is a week from tomorrow.
We are moving apart.
…and that’s a hard one, for me.
Moving on… How true this is. Wherever we are, we are temporary residents. That is one thing life has taught me, if nothing else.
Having moved to a new country which has slowly become my home…I understand this as well…there is the moving, moving apart and sometimes a coming back together, but always the moving on, moving on to what is new…sometimes easy, sometimes difficult…
