ADVENT LETTER #16
Change & Evolve goes Christmas 🎄
Thursday, December 16, 2021
If you enjoy my Letter I would be delighted if you share it with the people you believe may like it as well!
📚My Poem of the Day
is about good and evil, about balance and forgiveness.
Jane Hirshfield’s “The Weighing” is a very moving poem to me. To me this describes the balance between good and evil and our capability to believe in the good in people and our ability to forgive.
The Weighing
The heart's reasons
seen clearly,
even the hardest
will carry
its whip-marks and sadness
and must be forgiven.
As the drought-starved
eland forgives
the drought-starved lion
who finally takes her,
enters willingly then
the life she cannot refuse,
and is lion, is fed,
and does not remember the other.
So few grains of happiness
measured against all the dark
and still the scales balance.
The world asks of us
only the strength we have and we give it.
Then it asks more, and we give it.
