We need to consider the possibility that the world outruns any categories we might seek to use to capture it.

Humility is remembering God
Heart rules, or should do
Softness allows heart to dominate

First things first. To get out of the mind and into the body. Not just the material body – body as mass matter machine – but body as energy, body as movement, body as passion & desire, body as mind, body as love, body as mystery, body as spirit, and body divine. The body is real in all its dimensions, and needs to be exercised in all its dimensions, otherwise that sad feeling of unfulfillment and lost time will prevail.
Rarely either or. Usually both.
Joy lightens – removes the mass from the situation – and everything becomes energy.
Time is of the essence

We name this calling into question of my spontaneity by the presence of the Other ethics.

Emmanuel Levinas
Passion writhes; fear freezes
The Universe is 5% matter/energy, the rest being 25% dark matter and 70% dark energy. So, at least 95% of what's there we know next to nothing about. . .

climb beyond the blur of sky
My only prayer is that my passion outweigh/outrun my fear.
Yielding is an ethical rather than technical concern. How to make the interaction good.
