It’s been months since I’ve been here. But times have been good. Progress has been made. Even as my life has sped up a bit, I treasure the slowness and deliberateness of a tranquil, orderly, peaceful life more than I ever have. Sometime soon I’ll have to write, as I have much to write about. But after a very hard year, these last four months or so have been truly a gift from God.
