This is possibly the most beautiful book I have ever read. It touches me. Every word makes me think about who I am, my relationships to, and in part of the world. It is making me think about the present, and how it is part of a psst and future. My mind feels aware, noticing.

Still loving this, and needing to take my time. The concepts of 'oneness' and 'interconnectedness' as perhaps being a disservice to the richness and complexity of variation is profound. As are the concepts around forgiveness. We often look to similarity to 'heal' difference (one human race, one planet) but I think the way to explore tensions is to recognise, not quell difference?

'Ideas are not tidy guests'
'Mental mono-cropping is imprisonment'
This resonates with me so much and speaks to how I can struggle with clearly defined roles / disciplines / specialisations.
Perhaps none of us fit into boxes, no matter how much we have chosen to build them
