If we were not so single-minded
about keeping our lives moving,
and for once could do nothing,
perhaps a huge silence
might interrupt this sadness
of never understanding ourselves
and of threatening ourselves with death.
Perhaps the earth can teach us
as when everything seems dead
and later proves to be alive.
- Keeping Quiet, Pablo Neruda
Today morning, I was feeling sad about never understanding myself and it was a humongous relief to read this. Thank you so much for sharing this.
Love it. Since I believe in it. And could only look at the mirror and call myself all kinds of crazy for thinking that way.
Also, not black! Or brown. Or whatever THIS thing is. So not you. Or I hope it’s not you.
All my love

Befitting quote. I think for once, we were so shaken that the thought of keeping life moving stopped playing in our minds. The whole episode was overwhelming.
