This is a beautiful reminder to me. Grateful to take it into tomorrow.

“Which Holly, through her total mastery of human emotion, human thought, stripped down even further for her mother and father—way, way down—into the flowing haiku of her hands and body, the brightness, the effortless, expressive power, the astonishing and transcendent simplicity of her guileless, divinely awakened, beautiful breathing mammal face saying the one thing, actually, that all of us had always been trying to say to all of our students, all along, we just never knew how:

They love you, Lily

They love you so much”

... we really can communicate this all the time. Looking people in the eye, feeling the movement in our hearts when we become aware of them, work to keep them open. I love you I love you I love you I try to say in my head all the time--at least when I have the bandwidth and I remember. I sense people can feel it. The world bounces love back.
