“Today, transcending boundaries is hard work. For one thing, I’ve created more of them since I was young, and I’ve built them higher and stronger than they once were. For another thing, I’m much more self-righteous and much less humble than I was then. Sometimes, when I am at my best, I remember that the ‘other’ I distinguish myself from could be me in another time, another place, another circumstance. Then, I remember the words of a colleague who observed that it is ‘my racism, my sexism, my homophobia’ that I am called upon to address. So, I take a few deep breaths and begin to release the fears that are the boundaries between me and my fellow humans.”
-Rev. Yvonne Seon
Take a few deep breaths and begin to release the fears that are the boundaries between you and your fellow humans.
