New Monasticism, Art, Missions & Settling

Dearest J,

Wow. So much has happened since I last posted.

Donald Trump became president, UFO’s apparently are a REAL thing, I got my astrology read by a professional (which didn’t really help lol), I’ve broken up with my partner like 3 times in the last 2 weeks (again), and I’m torn between becoming a full-time monk or doing a full-time missions, or going back to work and figuring it out.

I’m deciding on actually completing the New Monasticism program, which would basically be another 3-4 years. Which is WILD.

The astrologer said, if you told me you were in an experimental digital monastery that wouldn’t surprise me, even if it sounds crazy lol.

But yeah.

I’m thinking about that.

Also, I went to church today and they were talking about missions. It was so awesome, that I stayed for BOTH services.

I don’t know — living in India for 2 years? Do I really believe in Jesus Christ as the only way (exclusionary), because at this point I feel more like a mystic than ANYTHING else.

I am looking into buying a small home with a bunch of acres in the middle of nowhere. Like, I might want to launch some type of retreat?

I also found out someone is doing a 1-month South Africa co-living space (near Cape Town) which sounded interesting.

I have all these ideas … and not sure what to do.

Anyways that’s what’s up.
