It's a funny thing that has happened the past few Christmases. I tend to view the books I get from family and friends as a new focus for the coming year. Confused? Let me clarify.
A few years back, I got mostly theology, biblical studies and spirituality books for Christmas and the next year seemed to focus more on those items.
Two years ago, I got books that mostly dealt with wilderness survival, rites of passage and vision quest. And that year I ended up going to Tracker School and prepping myself for my vision quest (which I have yet to take) all the while immersing myself in initiation rites.
Last year, I got books related to nature education and found myself working at a camp as a naturalist teaching nature education and starting programs that are enriching my knowledge and desire for teaching.
This Christmas, I got books mostly relating to nature and the soul... so I wonder (if the pattern remains true) what my emphasis and priorities will be this year?
