Being Of Service

A while back, shortly after our move into town, I joked to a friend that by moving into a small, plane, normal house in town, I could “make believe that I was mainstream”.  The fact is that by making such a move, I am more accessible to be of service to others.  I am reminded of a comment from the book Way of the Peaceful Warrior a Book that Changes Lives by Dan Millman; “You will live an ordinary life, learning how to remain ordinary in a troubled world to which, in a sense, you no longer belong.  Remain ordinary, and you can be useful to others.”  I suspect that being more accessible and useful is an important aspect of our move.
