To be free is to know who we are, with all that is beautiful







"To be free is
to know who we are,

with all that is beautiful,
all the brokenness in us;
it is to love our own values,
to embrace them,
and to develop them;
it is to be anchored
in a vision and a truth
but also to be open
to others and so,
to change.
Freedom lies in
discovering that the truth
is not a set of fixed certitudes
but a mystery we enter into,
one step at a time.
It is a process
of going deeper
and deeper
into an
unfathomable
reality."
