This resonated with me and I hope you'll find it so too!
Adventure is a path. Real adventure - self-determined, self-motivated, often risky - forces you to have firsthand encounters with the world. The world the way it is, not the way you imagine it. Your body will collide with the earth and you will bear witness. In this way you will be compelled to grapple with the limitless kindness and bottomless cruelty of humankind - and perhaps realize that you yourself are capable of both. This will change you. Nothing will ever again be black-and-white. - Mark Jenkins

I love the extremes you indicated; too many people won't bridge the boundaries, even a little… and many others think the dark side is their first alternative. I would love to open up the minds of the many to their greater good as well, which brings with it such deep satisfaction with their existence that the darker side never could since it's destructive.
Amen. So shall it be.
Blessings, and love, Sherrilene
I love this, Mila. It definitely resonated with me. I may borrow it for a story intro, if that's OK.
Thanks!
How profound. Thank you Mila, for sharing this treasure. Hugs ;-)
Sherri, wonderful insights you've added!
Lisa, it's not mine so go ahead!
Nel, hugging you back and delighted to read from you!
Thank you sisters for passing by!
