Loved this on so many levels, Ash. I've been following you for 10+ years now, and nodded and f-yeah-ed to so many of your emails. But this one is the secret sauce for right now. And that's probably the whole point...it's right for right now. Who knows what comes next, but bigger is not always better. And next will be better because we embrace being right-sized and letting ourselves take root when we need to. Along those lines, you might be interested in a book called This is Where You Belong. It's a researched memoir about finding a sense of place in/with/through community.

If you live a life with aligned desires, you have what you need. You don't have to travel the world, or make a million dollars to be successful. You have to live a big life - and living a big life, is as simple as living YOUR life.
