‘That’s just what translation is, I think. That’s all speaking is. Listening to the other and trying to see past your own biases to glimpse what they’re trying to say. Showing yourself to the world, and hoping someone else understands.’
Clearly I love the quotes that express the desire and the hope to be understood and the goodness that would bring individuals, groups, communities… the world. It is the type of desperation I feel when I see the news or witness distress or unrest. I just want everyone to take the time to listen or seek understanding and perspective.
