We humans are so precious.
Loving light beings with aches and bruises and owies galore.
Doing our best to love each other. Doing our best to be kind. Doing our best to get the dang laundry done, the kids in bed, our teeth and theirs brushed quickly and on time, without hurting anyone or anything in the process.
We try.
And yet those feelings arise in us, the ones we would rather do anything than feel, the ones that have us lash out, say things we don’t mean, pull away when we actually want help, go quiet when there is actually so much to say.
