“Work.”

E,

You have always been a practical person. This is not a bad thing. I live in dreams and ideas, but you have that extra thing; the ability to connect what is acceptable to what is possible when we reach for more. I struggle with that step. It is work for me. I am glad to see it is joy for you.

All work turns to joy in the end. We are learning who we are and becoming who we will always be. Sometimes, we do what we have to do on a messy earth and with messy outcomes. No one wants to speak to that point. We would rather pretend that ideals make everything alright. That might take a while. We live in the work until we can live in the wonder. We need grace to see and live in the distance between both places.
