Day 16 | The loving voice of wisdom
Description
Everyday I ask the loving voice of wisdom, which dwells in our hearts and in this world: “What would you have me know today?” And then I listen. This is what I heard one day, not long ago…
From elsewhere:
“The fourth myth is the belief that it is possible to be totally logical, rational and objective.” (I forget where I read this)
From my heart:
The challenge for you, my darling, is to live among men who are deeply invested in the fourth myth, and to see the harmful effects of that myth on your own heart, while also continuing to believe that it is sometimes possible to benefit from trying to be partially logical and rational and objective.
Absolutism is the spectre that hovers over and in any totalitarian belief.
The very exciting challenge is to be whole, rather than ever totally anything.
