Japanese teacher says:
At first light, rise.
Don’t hover between
sleep and waking,
this makes you heavy,
puts a stone inside your heart.
The minute you drift back to shore,
anchor. Breathe.
Remember your deepest name.
Naomi Shihab Nye
from Breaking the Fast
i could weep with the timeliness of this, of how i can (almost) hear it just now, our deepest name, our one name)))
