Letter from Jason – January 2022

Posted on December 31, 2021
in Letters from Jason, Newsletter Content, Newsletters

Dear Honey Run Friends,

I have realized this year that I have more fear of change than I originally thought. While I am excited to change things in my life that I am controlling, it is a different story when it is something I cannot control. This observation has led me to dig deeper into myself and ask why? Why do I fear change that is out of my control? Is it for fear that the change could disrupt my lifestyle? Is it because the change is unknown and let’s be honest none of us like the unknown? Is it because I don’t trust as much as I believe I do?

Que sera, sera. Is this statement a giving up acceptance or a trusting acceptance of my life’s circumstances? I want it to be a trusting acceptance; it is a trusting acceptance. My life’s path is filled with individuals who come in for a season and then exit. Some to return and others to be a stone in the wall of the chapel of memories that make up my life experience. All are important, and many are missed, but none are forgotten.

As I embark on another year of my life in this new year, I choose to not allow fear to creep in and paralyze me. I choose rather to trustingly accept what will be, will be, and embrace each new turn, change, and situation. I choose to control the only thing I can control, my attitude. I will see the positive in every situation, and I will work to look at myself less, putting others needs before my own. I do this selectively now, but I genuinely want this to become my nature.

I am excited for the new beginning of this year. I know that each day is my best day, and that tomorrow will bring an even better day, beginning today and with no end.

Happy New Year my friends!

Your que sera, sera Innkeeper,

Jason

    We can only hope that the pandemic will be under control. However, other variants are manifesting now.
    Hope you have upgraded your rooms. Instead of making my husband and I feel safe, comfortable and totally at peace, they are shabby!!!!

    Jason,

    I truly enjoy your letters and insights. I look forward to reading them. I’m always excited when I see an email coming from “The Inn” as I affectionately call it.

    Thank you for the letters and the memories of my past stay. I will see you again real soon.

    Jason, I feel so comfortable knowing that you are philosophically and physically in charge of the current and future well-being of this treasure – “our” Honey Run. How many innkeepers actually share the infrastructure of feeling behind the front doors?

    Good day Jason,
    My wife and I have had the pleasure of seeing the transition of the Inn at Honey Run as we have celebrated our wedding anniversary every year at the Inn since the opening of the Honeycombs. We celebrated our 50th anniversary in 2020 and just recently as a Christmas present to ourselves we enjoyed a two day stay before Christmas. Given the history of our stays we can say you rank number one as the best innkeeper. The changes you have made continue to make our experience one of extreme pleasure and serenity. You are truly a blessing. Continue in your journey and we will continue with our visits to the Inn. God Bless You

    Can’t wait for our annual early spring visit. The “Run” in March is amazing! Know that your words caught me at a moment when I needed to hear those words. You made a difference today my friend.

    Change is inevitable. 2021 had us change our visit 3 times as we relocated to precious elderly ladies in our lives unexpectedly and I was diagnosed with a rare breast cancer.
    The Inn was able to accommodate us when we finally arrived for a much needed break after my first chemo treatment. After the weekend ended much too soon, I was able to make tough decisions to have my beautiful hair shaved so as not to prolong the loss and to hold my head up and face the next 5 months of chemo and then 5 weeks of radiation. As I start the second round of chemo I appreciate the few days at the Inn as the respite it was. The retirement trips we planned with family and for first adventures into places unknown have been put aside for now and God willing, are yet to be explored when life gives us a steadier path forward.
    We have enjoyed the Inn several times over the years and hope to visit again soon as it’s just a car ride away and can be anything we need it to be during times that sometimes feel in someone else’s hands.
    Peace and Good Health,

    Cathy & Bob Fox

    Love reading your newsletters. Keep them coming. Love that place and it has been too long since the last trip I made with Mercy. What memories! You made our retreats memorable and different each time we came. Thanks so much for those memories.
