I see you, my sister, my brother – not just what covers your bones and comes from your lips – I see the soul that shines from your eyes, I feel the heart that beats inside you.
I respect and love you for what you are – the beautiful and the terrible, the love and fear.
In this moment we come to each other as strangers, though we are not strangers.
In this moment, what you feel and desire, think and do effects me, which makes you the most important person in the world to me.
In this moment, healing flows from the power of my being, as it flows from the power of your being.
Human community begins with self and the other. This is practical spirituality: one-to-one love and respect, a balm to pain and suffering.
