Dear one,

Thank you. My first wife and I once ended up with 14 peekapoos at the same

time. What annoying ecstasy. Thank you for caring about anything so much, as you

obviously do. I'm just relaxing and letting it all go. My life, my

circumstances, my soul all refuse to let me do anything else right now. OK, I

can take a

hint. I actually am cool with everything now. I'm like the servant in the

Rumi poem who wouldn't come out of the temple when his master called him to

continue on to the Turkish baths. He said to his master, who asked him why he

said

he couldn't leave, something like: " The same thing that won't let you come in

won't let me come out. " I am mesmerized by each moment. I did not realize that

a person could feel this relaxed and still function. In fact, of course, I

function better than ever, in my increasingly humbler opinion. Hang onto your

hats. This one has a few wild hairs growing out of his eyebrows. Watch for

further developments.

 

You know what it really is? I'm just falling helplessly inward, and it's

great. There never was a Joseph, and " I " now know this in " my " heart. Just be.

We

are all the thing itself right now. My retreat has already been as beautiful

as it could possibly need to be, and I haven't even begun yet.
