Wisdom from Stephen Levine

from Healing Into Life and Death:

"Nothing has to be different for us to be whole. It is not a matter of change as much as it is of merciful acceptance. We don't even have to be less angry or less frightened or less doubtful. We don't have to be more loving, or more compassionate or more wise. To be whole is just to take ourselves within wholeheartedly, to meet even our lovelessness, our mercilessness, with a deeper ahhhh!"

May you dwell in the open heart
May you be free from suffering
May you be healed wherever healing is called for
May you know your deepest joy, your greatest peace

always ourselves we love the least
that's the burden of the Angel/Beast
- Bruce Cockburn
