100% right on. From immersing ourselves in nature like you and your family did to enjoying a daily contemplative practice in which the perspective is adjusted by simply observing what is around us, in the moment - awe and wonder are the KEY. The end of the book of Job has always been one of my favorite readings in scripture. Thanks for the context.

Thanks for this Ragan, reminded me to go and read a copy of Hunt, Gather, Parent. It's been on my to-read list for a while!
