I'm aware of the silence on the OE listserv since I wrote several days ago. A heaviness has come over me, too. </div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Thank you for your deep, honest sharing. I appreciate hearing the intensely compelling things going on in the world and the church that drew you and Joe to the Order. That was a time of awakening and consciousness-raising -- civil rights, war protest, etc. I can see how the OE and EI were a vehicle for living out that new consciousness. </div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">It sounds like a brave move for you, Judy, and Mimi to make your case to JWM to take your children with you to India. I'm glad the three of you prevailed. I have no doubt that it mattered to you and your kids. </div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Thank you again for being so open and honest in your sharing.</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false">Marsha</div><div dir="ltr" data-setdir="false"><br></div><div><br></div>
