May you enjoy the comforts, without letting them capture you forever. May you enjoy the fruits that the giants planted aeons ago. May you feel comfortable with uncertainty and change, knowing you are following the divine truth.

May the things that you sacrificed at the altar of your ambition be worth it. May you reap a harvest so massive it puts your previous ones to shame. May you enjoy the heat of the double dog sun so much it keeps you warm through the descent. #lammas
