Blind faith cannot grasp Truth, because it does not grasp anything at all.
Intellect cannot grasp Truth, because intellect is finite and Truth is infinite.
Only the eye of the soul, its inner wisdom, can grasp Truth
and know it as she knows her own self.
For she is Truth.
~Rabbi Tzvi Freeman
some kind of life awaits us….
inquiry for today~ there is a bittersweet opening just ahead….
Life will break you.
Nobody can protect you from that,
and living alone won’t either, for solitude will also break you
with its yearning.
You have to love.
It is the reason you are here
on earth.
You are here to risk your heart. You are here
to be swallowed up.
And when it happens that you are broken, or betrayed, or left,
or hurt
or death brushes near,
let yourself sit by an apple tree and listen to the apples
falling
all around you in heaps,
wasting their sweetness.
Tell yourself you tasted as many as you could.
~Louise Erdrich
Perfect reminder, I like this poem as much as Mary’s The Orchard …
