Remembering Who We Are

"It is beautifully difficult to remember who we really are.  But we help each other every time we fill the cup of truth and hold each other up after drinking from it."  Mark Nepo

Nepo suggests that perhaps what Adam and Eve lost when kicked out of Eden was their ability to remember what is sacred.  It does seem that most people lose -- in some ways -- the essence of who they are as life buffets them around.  When I am around my beautiful granddaughter, I am struck by the exquisite essence of who she is.  That exquisite essence of who we are is what, I think, we are trying to remember.  Each of us is an exquisite essence.  Let us help each other remember that.
