posting this because it might resonate with some. we all need to lead with compassion, imho.

"We are not human beings having a spiritual experience; we are spiritual beings having a human experience." - Pierre Teilhard de Chardin, S.J.

thinking more deeply about this today.

what does it mean to be a spiritual being having a human experience?

how does this belief change the way we operate in the world?

how do we reconcile these two diametrically opposing views, being spiritual and having a human experience?

how does this belief change the way we interact with our fellow beings having a human experience?

can we bring more compassion to our fellow spiritual beings who are maybe struggling with this human experience?

"Someone I loved once gave me
A box full of darkness.
It took me years to understand,
That this too, was a gift."
~ Mary Oliver
