The only way to open hearts of people is to open their hearts. If we want the same old, then we should go about it in the same old way; if we want new, we need to open ourselves to new ways.

So the issue is mine. And the resolution is with the first motion: love. I have been afraid to trust the people. I too try to control the results too much. I want you to open space, to let people be heard. It is less important that I be heard than that you are heard.

Fear it is I am confronting. Fear is hard to overcome. Name it. Tell stories not of how others got to where they were going, but perhaps of my own fears and the power of unknowing going, of trusting the people.

It is process. So I give my message and they do with it as they please. Space is opened, at least for an instant in their mind’s eye, hopefully in their heart. If it closes again, it will be easier to open next time. Keep up with the message.

We can have a great heart anywhere.

What is the poetry
the song
of your life?
What key
unlocks?
What the music
What the beat
What the rhythm
Indiscreet?

Even if G*d is not growing, it is our duty.
