How many of the above points can you relate to?

When I came across this post, I was a little surprised to see how many of them I was able to relate to and how each of these can cause trauma. Again, I know being a parent is one of the hardest jobs but being a good parent is an achievement that will keep on giving back, life long, in some way.

Still with this Victoria Chang poem.

Each day, each moment is a chance to soften. To soften to yourself, to your hurt and pain and to what comes into your life.

“Every human being has paid the earth to grow up. Most people don’t grow up. It’s too damn difficult. What happens is most people get older. That’s the truth of it. They honor their credit cards, they find parking spaces, they marry, they have the nerve to have children, but they don’t grow up. Not really. They grow older. But to grow up costs the earth, the earth. It means you take responsibility for the time you take up, for the space you occupy. It’s serious business. And you find out what it costs us to love and to lose, to dare and to fail. And maybe even more, to succeed. What it costs, in truth.”

— Maya Angelou (1928-2014) American poet, memoirist, activist

“Crime is terribly revealing. Try and vary your methods as you will, your tastes, your habits, your attitude of mind, and your soul is revealed by your actions.”

— Agatha Christie, And Then There Were None

“Consider this: You can see less than 1% of the electromagnetic spectrum and hear less than 1% of the acoustic spectrum. As you read this, you are traveling at 220 km/sec across the galaxy. 90% of the cells in your body carry their own microbial DNA and are not “you.” The atoms in your body are 99.9999999999999999% empty space and none of them are the ones you were born with, but they all originated in the belly of a star. Human beings have 46 chromosomes, 2 less than the common potato. The existence of the rainbow depends on the conical photo-receptors in your eyes; to animals without cones, the rainbow does not exist. So you don’t just look at a rainbow, you create it.”

There’s always a moment, isn’t there? Before the attack. The advance, the bombardment, the chaos; a moment of absolute calm. Listen. Doesn’t this feel like that moment?
