B.E.L. Post # 52

After the morning cleaning blitz, I shifted into steady hands-on work for the day. I processed three full crates of woody bits for the rocket mass heaters, keeping the fuel stash organized and ready for the colder days ahead. I also continued processing aluminum cans, slowly but surely chipping away at the pile.

Later on, I bucked further logs for firewood — solid, honest work that always feels grounding and productive.

To balance things out, the afternoon eased into a quieter rhythm. I spent some time reading and journaling, then wrapped things up by chilling with my little dog Chapito, enjoying the calm and the simple company.

After the morning meeting, we headed up to the Abbey and got right to work clearing the downed junk pole fencing in preparation for rebuilding. We made great progress and managed to clear out roughly 70 feet of fencing—solid teamwork and steady effort all around.

Since it was baking day, we shifted gears in the afternoon and made molasses cookies along with chocolate chip cookies. While everything baked, we settled in and watched a Christmas movie.

Thank you so much for your beautiful, generous words. I truly felt them as I read your message — they landed softly and warmly in my heart. Your way of seeing and sensing the world is a gift, and I’m grateful you chose to share that perspective with me.

This Earth ride certainly has been a wild one, and it’s comforting to know there are so many kind, luminous beings walking it with care, curiosity, and love for all creatures — human, animal, and otherwise. Your connection to animals, land, and energy comes through so clearly, and it makes perfect sense that the quiet of the countryside has helped you heal and settle again. Nature really does know how to hold us when we listen.

Please give Rumi a big smile and a good throw of the stick or frisbee from us — he sounds like a wonderful soul companion. Missoula truly is special, and it’s lovely to know you and Rumi passed through there together.

Thank you as well for your kind words about Paul and the work being done here. It’s meaningful to be part of a place and community that values harmony with the Earth and learning how to live more gently upon it.

Wishing you and Rumi continued health, peace, and many quiet moments filled with light.
