“It’s when you hide things that you choke on them.”
“Life is here to break your heart over and over again until you realize that heartbreak is life too, and therefore sacred, and so your heart can never really be broken, or fixed. You stand naked in front of life moment by precious moment, knowing that whatever happens is totally okay, the most perfect devastation revealing itself to be the most devastating perfection. This is freedom beyond the speaking of it.”
“Nobody sees anybody truly but all through the flaws of their own egos. That is the way we all see …each other in life. Vanity, fear, desire, competition— all such distortions within our own egos— condition our vision of those in relation to us. Add to those distortions to our own egos the corresponding distortions in the egos of others, and you see how cloudy the glass must become through which we look at each other. That’s how it is in all living relationships except when there is that rare case of two people who love intensely enough to burn through all those layers of opacity and see each other’s naked hearts.”
