The glass already broken
The leaf carried by the river
The cloud that is are not the sky
The moon behind the finger
A wordless koan.

A mantra (of sorts)
But enough
For the moment
To get me by.

Until we have met the monsters in ourselves, we keep trying to slay them in the outer world. And we find that we cannot. For all darkness in the world stems from darkness in the heart. And it is there that we must do our work. #mariannewilliamson #innerwork #outerworld #chaoticworld #darkness #rise
