Thank you, Alan. Faith is so important now, and your way of understanding and working with faith is incredibly empowering. It makes it personal and powerful and liberates it from a whole lot of baggage and assumptions!

"Steadfast faith in the honesty and integrity I find within myself when I am willing to feel whatever I feel without apology or abandonment" – Beautiful, Alan. So much can distract us from what is within, but the listening you describe here, the presence… I think that's what wisdom is, as well as faith.

Thank you Alan, the best definition of faith, at least for me, that I have ever read. Once again you have helped to put life in perspective for me ;). ❤️

Madeleine, I don't remember the name of the place, it was 15 years ago. However, I remember the day like it was yesterday. Magic, indeed.

"To walk through my doubt and hesitation and resistance and inner conflict, letting my fear, my fierceness, and my faith walk together, dance together, and argue with each other in their fierce love for one another. Even when it doesn’t always look or feel like love." Yes, yes, yes....
