Whether you find it through mediation or sighing over tea or just turning all your devices off for five minutes, listening is an ancient lifeline by which we are awakened time and again. Once reawakened, we more easily find our way to each other, and so help each other live.
Mark NepoIf we are to access the resources of life, we must listen with our common heart to the cries of the world.
Mark NepoSometimes the simplest and best use of our will is to drop it all and just walk out from under everything that is covering us, even if only for an hour or soโjust walk out from under the webs we've spun, the tasks we've assumed, the problems we have to solve. They'll be there when we get back, and maybe some of them will fall apart without our worry to hold them up.
