Small inspiration from Jeff Foster to the light workers
Just to sit, without expectation, with someone who is in pain or grief or fear, without trying to fix them in any way, or manipulate their experience to match your idea of how they should be; just to listen, without trying to make things better in the moment, without playing the role of ‘expert’ or ‘enlightened guru’ or ‘the one who knows best’; just to be totally available to the one in front of you – and then, on a practical level, to do what’s necessary and natural in the moment – this is the essence of true healing. It’s in this not-knowing, this deep presence, beyond our concepts, beyond our roles, unprotected, undefended, unresolved, that we truly meet.
