After John the Baptist baptized Jesus, Jesus went into the desert for 40 days and 40 nights. Satan appeared to tempt Jesus but failed.

I know you weren’t gone for 40. The black mold perturbing your thoughts wasn’t literally Satan. Still, being derailed from our routines is not insignificant. And how we regroup and resume can make our return from the desert a process helping us see, or revisit, life lessons.

I’m so very glad to have seen you in my inbox this morning! All the very best.

I’m so happy that you are back and doing so well.

It feels like a great time of reset for many of us. We are coming out of the darkness and starting to create coming from a new light and inner joy.

I hear you. I know the dark mold of which you speak. I feel the judgments you carry, because I carry them as well. But I remind myself I am kind, loving and accepting; and that is how I see you. Let's just carry on, together, one word at a time.

I feel I have a similar reset post brewing in me. I wrote something I wasn’t ready to share a few weeks ago….and then I stopped. So good to see you pushing through.
