The Airing of Grief

s2e13: Complexity and Convergence


Listen Later

When so much of who we are told to be is rooted in fear and simplistic thinking... embracing confusion and complexity is a truly revolutionary act.

Letting go of unearned certainty – and learning to celebrate the nuanced, the difficult, the complicated – means liberation.

And it might just mean a new and unexpected community on the other side as well. A convergence. Where what we've been handed can keep us at odds with ourselves and others, our defiance of it can open the door to a new world. Conformity brings with it paralyzing anxieties, but there is rest in contradicting that paradigm.

Finally, we can hold space for others in which we ourselves are truly present.

And without fear.
