I have bathed in the thoughtful words of my old friend Janice these past few days. I have felt the luxury of spending whole days with someone totally trusted, totally non-judgmental, totally comfortable with me, her, us. Sharing precious time together; precious because it is not often spent.
Today I also spent precious time with a new friend Andy. The process of shared discovery in telling who we are.
I said:
I don’t do superficial.
I like to go deep.
Into the very heart and soul of a matter,
into feeling, into movement, into moment.
She said:
Yes, I know.
I didn’t ask her how she knows; I trust she can see.
As I play back this morning’s exchange, I can’t help but note,
in awe and wonder:
That delving into the contemplation of G-d, the Divine,
is the deepest I can go.
Once there, heart fully open,
there comes a joy and aliveness
that knows no bounds.
A burst of sparks and flame which allows
body, mind, heart, soul to be part of the One.
The richness of human communication; a path to the Divine.
