Two Things

This:

Hildegard of Bingen, The Spark of Creation, from the Liber Scivias, Book II, 12th century, Germany

and this:

... if we tend to things at the deepest level, our repair will be so much a part of who we are that there will be no scar. It is easier to bend underneath the surface, in the deep timeless fluid of the beginning, than to break once fully grown.


Mark Nepo, from The Book of Awakening
