...one of the greatest privileges of a human life is to become midwife to the birth of the soul in another. When your soul awakens, you begin to truly inherit your life. You leave the Kingdom of fake surfaces, repetitive talk and weary roles and slip deeper into the true adventure of who you are and who you are called to become. The greatest friend of the soul is the unknown...

Loving the Fiji rain!

Hi all! Sorry for the lack of updates lately - been short of decent internet time as of late. Had several inquiries about our safety due to the tsunami that was predicted for Fiji as a result of the Chile's earthquake, and wanted to let everyone know that we are doing just peachy - nothing more here than a few funny waves. The sea looked and sounded very strange for a while - not so much that we would have even noticed it if we were new to the island, but those of us that live here could tell the difference.

Jimmy is completely well now, and aside from a runny tummy bug that went through last week, we've all been doing just fine! The rains have finally come - hallelujah! I have to cut this short now, because I am huddled in my coconut leaf/corrugated iron computer shack typing this and a mist of rain is blowing in on the puter.

We have plans to be off the island later this week, and I will post a proper update then, with pictures. We are taking a short family holiday off the island later in the week, so hopefully I can get some quality internet time in then. Very excited about this! We haven't been off the island together as a family since we arrived in Nov., and we are feeling ready for a bit of a break. Loving our jobs here, but the downsize is that there is never truly any "off" time unless you leave the island. So Savusavu, here we come!

Much love to everyone back home! Keep checking the blogs on the Tribewanted website as well - we try to put up a blog or two each week!

XOXO!

Jenny
