what do i want?

christine is doing her "great big dreams" retreat again this weekend, and that's got me thinking about what it is i want.

yes, i want to sell the house, but more specifically i want to sell it at a good price to someone who will love being here and be good neighbors with lela and miles next door.

and more generally, i want to be free of these possessions (including the house) that seem to hold me in ways i don't want to be tethered.

so how do i ask for what i want? i want to live simply and be free to do the work i feel called to.

that reminded me of what we hoped for during our "delusions of stability" in 2006 when we bought this house -- we wanted it to be a good launching pad.

wow. that worked.

careful what you ask for.
