Becoming whole ….

.

“If you want to become whole,

let yourself become partial.

If you want to become straight,

let yourself be crooked.

If you want to become full,

let yourself be empty.

If you want to be reborn,

let yourself die.

If you want to be given everything,

give everything up.”

.
