great big words!
Between what is said and not meant, and what is meant and not said, most of love is lost.
(Khalil Gibran)

Frustrated? Yes. Why? Because it is impossible for me to be God -or the universal woman-and-man- or anything much.
I am what I feel and think and do. I want to express my being as fully as I can because I somewhere picked up the idea that
I could justify my being alive that way. But if I am to express what I am, I must have a standard of life,
a jumping off place, a technique – to make arbitrary and temporary organization of my own personal and pathetic little chaos.
I am just beginning to realize how false and provincial that standard, or jumping off place, must be.
That is what is so hard for me to face. (Sylvia Plath)
…
dive deep into the woods
in the hands of nature you find yourself!
in the arms of your parents you find the inner child
with deadly ears and broken wings…
