I love this so much. I ALSO love a list (Pisces daughter of a triple Libra) but lately I notice my addiction to the lists and the promise of absolution that they hold for me. If I do all the things on the list, surely I will have the life I want -- and yet, so many of the things I truly yearn for are outside my control. No amount of list-making will bring them to me. I also relate to the prep thing in that... while I was raised without any idea of the Apocalypse, I found New Age cult spirituality in my 20's and fell in love with the ideas UNTIL I realized how deeply enmeshed many of the paradigms were with Evangelical Christianity and the "white light" we were ushering in 1) was white and 2) tied to a vision of the Hereafter that bore an uncanny resemblance to the Heaven you describe, the Rapture. Anyway, I also appreciate that you are one of the few writers on the platform not selling me anything. Thanks for sharing a vision that doesn't automatically lead to a sales pitch. Oh and also I love your books :)

And just think what would happen if all the men in charge did their own soul prepping.
