5:45 am- One morning a week ago, and only four days after moving into our home, David awakened to a dripping sound. He first thought it was an app on the i-phone that was making the noise. To his surprise and shock, he stepped out of bed into 2 inches or so of warm water. He took a few steps and realized water was everywhere.
Sometimes I resist taking my own medicine.
Recently I went on a trip to the United States to obtain my permanent visa for Mexico. Even after six months of asking questions and doing research, it was never quite clear what the requirements for the visa were. So I started out with a vague sense of what I needed, a copy of practically every bank statement for the last six months and a lot of prayers.
My friend Nancy, Nancy G. Shapiro, went with me sharing the drive and so much more. We stayed with friends of Nancy‘s in San Antonio who graciously opened their home and shared much love and humor.
Our friend Tim referred to us staying there as “the new assisted living”. We loved the re-frame.
Over the last four months our lives have gone through a wonderful, powerful and life changing evolution. We write this from our new home in San Miguel de Allende in Mexico.
While visiting San Miguel last summer, we were unmistakably called to be here. We knew it was time to move into what our hearts were longing for even though it meant moving away from those we loved.
Did you know you have core values that run like high-speed software inside you?
Do you know what your core values are and where they came from?
Feeling sick at heart and don’t know why?
Do You Know your Core Values?
Core values become measures by which we understand ourselves in relation to others and the world around us.
We’re in San Miguel de Allende in Mexico, ( SMA for short), a place dear to our hearts.
SMA was up and running by the 1600’s. There is a rich mixture of foreigners and Mexicans resulting in a blending of multiple cultures coming together to promote a community where tolerance, kindness, respect and beauty can prevail for all.
