“It takes skill to be real. Time to heal each other”

“This is how philosophers should salute each other: ‘Take your time.”

“it’s important to make sure that we’re talking with each other in a way that heals, not in a way that wounds.”

“We have to heal the divides in our country. Not just on guns. But on race. Immigration. And more. That starts with listening to each other. Hearing each other. Trying, as best we can, to walk in each other's shoes.”

“There are worlds beyond worlds and times beyond times, all of them true, all of them real, and all of them (as children know) penetrating each other.”

“Granted we known each other for some time
but it don't take a whole day to recognize sunshine”

“In heaven, “we will have a real body with a real voice—and we will recognize each other’s voice.””

“In real conversations, we are always trying to outguess each other.”

“And once trust is broken, it takes a long time to heal—if it ever heals at all. Sadly, during my career, I saw several people—sharp, talented people—lose trust and never regain it.”

“It is to be broken. It is to be
torn open. It is not to be
reached and come to rest in
ever. I turn against you,
I break from you, I turn to you.
We hurt, and are hurt,
and have each other for healing.
It is healing. It is never whole.”
