that I find particularly relevant right now are these:
The wound is the place where the light enters in
My yoga teacher quoted them near the end of class today.
I have to acknowledge their relevance.
I have been arrogant, defensive, and self-centered.
Recently when this was pointed out to me, I reacted with more defensiveness and self-justification. I was wounded. I ignored what Rumi had taught me.
Hearing the words in yoga class I realized that I needed that wound.
So I offer my deepest gratitude to the person who rightly called me to account, even if it hurt.
And I apologize, to that person, and to this community.
Peace.
