I cannot die an unlived life
I cannot dwell in concern
of falling or catching fireplace.
I select to inhabit my days,
to permit my residing to open me,
to make me much less afraid,
extra accessible,
to loosen my coronary heart
till it turns into a wing,
a torch, a promise.
I select to threat my significance;

goes to the following as blossom
and that which got here to me as blossom,
goes on as fruit.

Time melts and ideas turn out to be tales, music, poems, photos, concepts. That is the intelligence of the guts, however by that I don’t imply simply the seat of our feelings. I imply an enormous vary of receptive and connective talents, instinct, innovation, knowledge, creativity, sensitivity, the aesthetic, qualitative and which means making. It’s right here that we uncover our function and fervour.
