Let me take the Fool’s Journey
Let me be one who dares the risks that lie along the edge. For only in the daring can we be truly open to the lessons that are
there to be learned. To be fully human is to risk all

Let me be one who walks along the Edges.
Let me be one who hears the voices of those who see no borders between one human being and another

We are all children of this place called Earth. Children of the Mother and each of us equally precious in Her sight.
