...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...

Fiji Gratitude #9

I am grateful. For everything. I'm without words tonight. Emotionally spent. The Fijians held a feast in our honor today. Beautiful speeches were made to us. Beautiful gifts were given. Tui Mali cried. We cried. Even the kids. Such open-hearted people Fijians are-much we can learn from them. Last full day on island tomorrow. More goodbyes. Farewells are so important in Fijian culture, but so hard on our hearts...
