And all the furthering / This new day will bring." ~ John O'Donohue

“Innocence is what we allow / to be gifted back to us / once we’ve given ourselves away.” from David Whyte's “Ten Years Later” - expanded thoughts by David Whyte “Innocence is, in a way, the ability to be found by the world. It’s not a state of naïveté. It’s the ability to be found by the world you’re now inhabiting. Part of what we find is, we’re just supposed to give ourselves away, actually.”
Joyce Sidman's What the Heart Knows: Chants, Charms, and Blessings, with its magnificent illustrations by the incredibly fabulous Pamela Zagarenski, is both lovely and powerful ❤
Koinonia Greek word which refers to concepts such as fellowship, joint participation, the share which one has in anything, a gift jointly contributed, a collection, a contribution.

Understanding.” ~ David Whyte
Vulnerability: "To run from vulnerability is to run from the essence of our nature, the attempt to be invulnerable is the vain attempt to become something we are not and most especially, to close off our understanding of the grief of others. More seriously, in refusing our vulnerability we refuse the help needed at every turn of our existence and immobilize the essential, tidal and conversational foundations of our identity."
“eXperiences with poetry where I felt literally abducted, taken away by poetry, just like a hawk had come down and taken me in its claws and carried me off” ~ David Whyte
You are heading toward your demise, but it’s leading towards this richer, deeper place that doesn’t get corroborated very much in our everyday outer world.” ~ David Whyte
Zoë Keating's “Seven League Boots” playing in the backgroun while this was recited by David Whyte at the beginning of the interview with Krista Tippett: "Sometimes it takes darkness and the sweet / confinement of your aloneness / to learn // anything or anyone / that does not bring you alive // is too small for you.
