Each day I try to read an entry from Mark Nepo’s “The Book of Awakening”. Today’s entry is particularly relevant to what is going on in the world right now with COVID-19.
“We often underestimate the power of giving voice, but it is real and sustaining. It is the basis of all song. It is why prisoners break into song. It is why the blues are sung, even when no one is listening. It is at the heart of all hymn and mantras.”
Now more than ever, we need to listen to what is pressing on our hearts and give voice to it. Sigh, mumble, talk, cry, sing, whatever your heart needs to express to heal!
