Co-creation of Self through Relationship – not just Beings
I particularly liked this quote which reminds me of how we come to know our Being – through relationship – not just with other beings but our physical, social, spiritual, natural and ideological relationships.
“The universe is one great kindergarten. Everything that exists
has brought with it its own peculiar lesson. The mountain teaches
stability and grandeur; the ocean immensity and change. Forests,
lakes, and rivers, clouds and winds, stars and flowers, stupendous
glaciers and crystal snowflakes every form of animate or inanimate
existence, leaves its impress upon our soul.”
