Thank you for this, Nona. My small sacred act of devotion is to "peek within." As I type this I am in the Northeast with family and old friends. As we talk about life over the last 20 or so years, I feel where I have made significant progress and where I have built a bench to sit on where I have been stuck. The various benches are built to cover up the pandora's boxes beneath. If I don't see the lids of the boxes, I will not see the boxes and I can just sit there and say, "Hey, this is where I am, right?" I think that is the best metaphor for how I have hidden important things but not urgent things from my best and highest wisdom. Your post makes me think to "just take a peek." There is nothing to fear here, right? It is always warm and welcoming in your space! Thank you.

Oh Iyabo. There is definitely nothing to fear here - I know that in those benches are hidden treasures, sister. I am breathing with you as you peek within. Enjoy your family and friends. <3
