What are we?

What are we? - We have misjudged, nearly all of the time

We have had some events that hit us - quite sour, everything off, flat, flow is gone. Embarrassed! We didn’t measure up. And it feels all of us is in the grip of that.

We then need time, for other things to emerge, that this sore spot is not everything, for some perspective to develop - reminders there have been good things - not all of us is so sour. Life starts moving again.

And there are different degrees by which we are patched together, with good things, and bad things.

And that is the problem - We are patched together - We see ourselves to be a collection of patches.

But it may be that we are always more than that. That our wholeness is complete, and beyond our grasp. Even when things are good, we have missed the magnitude of our wholeness.

And that leaves us vulnerable to misjudging the sour spots…… And the sweet spots…..
