I’ve never thought about things this way. Perhaps it’s why, when we soften into something, the Universe provides but when we are gripping it feels so different.
This makes it so difficult from the aspect of poverty as it must be very hard not to feel frantic, like one must pull things toward one’s self, to make ends meet.
What a poverty to not be able to see the magnificent nature of our bodies and nature. All "permeable" in motion, speaking in languages of chemistry, biology, physics, etc. The beauty that we all break down to simple elements, makes us more alike then ever! Now that is plenitude!
Disclosed in a form which is patient.

Donna,
These words from Teilhard stir me, too, with the sense of gentle participation that you point to.
(You have been on my heart and mind these days with fires in Jasper.)

Julie,
What a beautiful reflection on plenitude! Thank you for this, as I recall this aspect of plenitude is on your heart at present.
