“If you bring forth what is within you, what you bring forth will save you. If you do not bring forth what is within you, what you do not bring forth will destroy you.”
The tragedy of life is not living what you know to be true.” He raises a slight toast. “This is why I will walk the Camino. A start to a life of living the lessons. What is within me.”
He named fear for what it was, acknowledged its existence, and then just let it be. That took away Mara’s power, which was an illusion anyway. Eventually, Mara grew bored and wandered away.
“I see you, Mara,” I whisper. “I see you.”
“Here: ‘If I loved myself, what would I do?’”
“Two partners,” he whispers into my ear. His voice is hoarse. “Fear and faith. The one you dance with determines your life.”
“It is not your wound that makes you special.” A kind smile grows on his tired face. “It is the light that shines through that does.”
“No matter what one does, there’s got to be love in it.”
