his ashes are under this. the person i believed in. who asked me to believe in him.
i think he was sincere, in this asking. i think it was real.
but
then…he couldn't follow through.
When someone can't follow through, who do you
blame?
there is no blame.
but there is, always, some kind of truth.
it is the forever looking for the real, soft, loving truth that
has worth.
i think of Jude's being. she is talking about this.

Oh! I had a tiff with mom on Thursday about a difference of opinion on how to counsel a youngone (tough love vs loving support…at the expense of the young ones growth). I think we need to be honest, even if it means wearent good girls but make loved ones aware of reality. Brave is best.

Joan Erikson has a great quote: A good life is like a weaving. Energy is created in the tension. The struggle, the pull and tug are everything. And sometimes, the unraveling teaches us more than we can understand about loving someone, about ourselves, and especially about what is of deepest value.

judes wild angel beast, your acceptance of what was, finding the soft truth that comes eventually. i know, too. it has great worth and it is sometimes told by spirits. it is the spirit that can let it loose.
