Over the weekend, I listened again to the lovely conversation between the poet Naomi Shihab Nye and Krista Tippett.
Even though it impacted me significantly the first time I heard it several years ago, I listened as if for the first time. Again.
Isn’t it interesting that the same words create a reality in different ways in different seasons?
And that’s why words and conversations are so rich. They are multi-layered, bringing to life different realities as we are ready and able to engage with them.
I am so glad we don’t live in a binary world.
