The only self
The only self
is one
we have met
:- Doug.

Thinking through
—through one another
—through the gaps among us
—through the aggregate of us
Speaking our holy
through
the all
of us
:- Doug.
Woundedness, vulnerability, sharing our weaknesses: let us explore. There is a power here. There is a courage that is more difficult than simply facing fear. There is a farther courage in showing our weakness, our wounds. Action in the face of fear is surpassed by standing forth in our humanity.
:- Doug.
9-12 taught us there is something in woundedness. There is gathering. There is opening to one another. There is acting out of caring. There is slowing. There is attending. This something is of our highest. This something, shared, releases our power.
:- Doug.
