Complete your symbols.
If the first half of life is finding your true symbols, the second is more fully tending and harvesting them. For example i live in three cities currently, each represents a unique aspect of my own story. Each symbolizes part of the story of my life.
The three cities you occupy are aspects of a whole symbol. Austin, San Fran and Antwerp—each symbolize different aspects of your calling and identity–His expression of His Life through you.
You could base in whichever you choose, but they are actually all part of One whole symbol. Austin, pastoral creative haven; san fran, visual intelligence and global launching, Antwerp, monastic gateway into europe and the nations…you can occupy all three and rotate seasonally.
In the first half of life people are searching for self, and what are the symbols which are yours-what is home, what is Real, what is yours to know and tend. In the second, you know what’s yours and you begin to refine it and teach it to others. You cultivate and make pleasant the lines of your inheritance! Mine art, authentic spirituality, integration, and identity. Creativity and Identity and their proper relationship in Jesus. How we find ourselves in finding Him!
