What do you love more than what you imagine is your singular life? Are you willing to take your place in the forest again?    to become loam and bark to be a leaf falling. from a great height.  to be the worm who eats the leaf and the bird who eats the worm?    Look at the sky: are you willing to be the sky again? You think this lesson is too hard for you    You want the thing you're struggling with to end.  You want to go to the movies as before, to sit and eat with your friends. It can end now, but not in the way you imagine    You know the mind that has been talking to you for so long—the mind that can explain everything?    Don’t listen. You were once a citizen of a country called I Don’t Know. Remember the burning boat that brought you there?   Climb in. (Marie Howe: What The Silence Said) Thanks to Sophie for her FFA (Free Free-Association) of this card. Each FFA involves Sophie, freely-associating around the episode card which until that moment she had never set eyes on before. I see the FFAs as buckets of cool spring water from The Well of The Collective Unconscious. -- Music: Ariel's Song No human or non-human creature was hurt in the creation of the slap sound used in this podcast.
