Shh. Yes, you are fragile
Shh. Yes, you are fragile
No, that is not all right
But you are as all of us
& together & alone
We get to where we can
Share this fragility
There is strength here too
Among us

Once we meet all we are whole
Once we meet all we are whole. Of course there is always another to meet, another aspect of ourselves to unearth, to infinity. To be met in ourselves and others is light and dark and mystery. That is the whole story, the story still writing itself.

The central parts of life:
These are the components of the heart of us, our growing essence (we do not so much want to meet our original selves, but who has grown out of them): we have both light and dark, evil and good, but the light and the good prevail. Thus, the philosopher’s heart (not stone) is engaging ourselves. We need to engage each other because without one another we are not. Hearing, meeting, engaging: these are the central parts of life and once we meet all we are whole.
