greetings, friends of moonshadow.
we are looking for someone to take over the eldercare role, starting
as early as may. please pass this on to anyone you think might be
interested. the job entails taking care of our 96 year old great-
grandmother, mildred (aka nana). this includes keeping her company,
making sure she takes her pills, making her meals, and simply being a
presence (you would have your own sleeping space with a monitor for
nighttime). she also has another caretaker who comes for 25 hour per
week. room and board are included as well as a stipend during the
times when johnny (her son) and carol (his wife) are away and unable
to help. the job would be ideal for someone who is looking for a
place to spend some quiet time, reading, writing, making art... and
you'd be living just down the hill from moonshadow! please let us
know if you'd like more details.
thanks!
- the moonshadow crew
please note my new email address

"some changes may look negative on the surface, but you will soon
realize that space is being created in your life for something new to
emerge. there may be a period of insecurity and uncertainty. what
should i do? as the ego is no longer running your life, the
psychological need for external security, which is illusory anyway,
lessens. you're able to live with uncertainty - even enjoy it. when
you become comfortable with uncertainty, infinite possibilities open
up in your life. it means fear is no longer a dominant factor in what
you do and no longer prevents you from taking action to initiate
change. the roman philosopher, tasitus, rightly observed that 'the
desire for safety stands against every great and noble enterprise.'
if uncertainty is unacceptable to you, it turns into fear. if it's
perfectly acceptable, it turns into increased aliveness, alertness and
creativity."
