\nMany of us avoid ever really saying what we think is true because we're afraid it will rupture the relationships that matter to us. But it's our truthfulness with one another - especially about our experiences, our values, our promises and commitments - that's so often called for if we're going to step forward into the unknown future together. So what about learning to be the ones who, in the face of rupture in our relationships, help one another to return and, in doing so, help one another tell the truth?

\nAloneness is a journey within,\nas we seek to unlock doors\xa0\nwe\u2019ve closed behind us.\nIts only through each other\nthat our hesitant seeds might\xa0\nbreak through a baked, red earth.\nHow might we become the\xa0\nweavers of that circle that\ncould bind us?\n
