The Other Side

[noticed at Unedited Ravings]

"[The discovery of our common humanity] is a journey from loneliness to a love that transforms, a love that grows in and through belonging, a belonging that can include as well as exclude. [This] discovery... liberates us from self-centered compulsions and inner hurts; it is the discovery that ultimately finds its fulfillment in forgiveness and in loving those who are our enemies. It is the process of truely becoming human."

---from Jean Vanier's Becoming Human
