Anyone who teaches
that solo experience is not the best teacher
is not the best teacher.

Solo experience
now and then teaches the hard way,
but the hard way is the unforgettable way.

When one is a stranger to oneself,
then one is estranged from others…
Only when one is connected to one’s core
is one truly connected to others.

This time is about uncovering and discovering what is true….
The big old spruce that stand behind the cabin
reminds me that both of us grow by thrusting our roots
into the darkness as well as our branches into the light.

…I need to come home to myself.
It’s not really how far I move
to find my own wisdom that matters,
but it’s crucially important
that I take myself along on the journey.

Was something brushed across my mind
That no one on earth will ever find?
Heaven gives its glimpses only to those
Not in positions to look too close.

Wolf Pack Moving Across Open Snow

A world without wonder,
and a way of mind without wonder,
becomes a world without imagination,
and without imagination humanity is a poor
and stunted creature.
Religion, poetry, and all the arts
have their sources in this upwelling
of wonder and surprise.
Let us thank God that so much will forever
remain out of reach, safe from our inquiry,
inviolate forever from our touch.
~ Henry Beston in Northern Farm
