Not at all....I have just had a lot to think about lately.  Part of me is not sure what questions to ask, but I have one that I hope I can get some insight into.  In this tradition, how does connection to creation and service to creation meld?  Is one more important than the other or come before the other?  How does one facilitate the connection and the service?

Okay, and another crazy question...you said to watch for signs.....and I think I have seen some but don't know what to make of it.  In my most peaceful moments before we moved to Kansas, I had a place that was almost...well sacred to me....one of the beautiful things about this place were the gorgeous dragonflies. 

I had almost forgotten about this until this summer.....I have not seen a dragonfly here in Kansas all the time we have been here...several years...but now, this summer I have seen many.  Am I jsut noticing them now?

Perhaps the dragonflies have a message for you.

I'm not sure I understand what you mean by "service to creation"?

For me, seervice to creation is anything that can make the world a better place, recycling, caring for others, I guess even prayer could be in this area.

Perhaps "service to creation" begins with service to yourself. Finding balance is a lifelong endevor.
