Heart
I will remain thankful for my heart and my humanity, even when it feels confusing and contradictory.
Good conversation tips:
“If we had 5 mins left, what would you want to have had covered” gets to the meat earlier
“Putting aside a list of pros/cons, what’s the one reason you’re doing this?” “Why is that the most important reason?”
“What would the best version of yourself do”?
When someone confronts you w/ a problem they have with you
What I heard was
I don’t have all the answers, and I get things wrong all the time. But I no longer fight against my nature. My life is filled with love, with deeply loving people, because I care too much. How could I resent that? My capacity to attach to others also my capacity to attach to the world.
