pure innocence, safe trust

Have you ever wondered what it would be like to go back and revise all the little things you did... those things you shared out of pure innocence or safe trust, but after the fact you realize that your actions... as honest and pure as your intentions were... your actions weren't understood and caused injury through the misunderstanding of motives questioned and filters marred by the experience of your Love's past hurts.

What if we all could just communicate?
Sift through things together, as a community?
Why do we have to be such isolationists, burrowing holes deep into our hearts, shoving all our emotions deep down- hoping to cover them up with fine sounding phrases laced in spiritual overtones?
That's when those phrases turn up empty-- when you use them for your own hiding, for the times you can't reason or hope to understand the situation at hand. When you can't believe what you've been holding onto so fervently-- faith. Certain of what you hope for and do not yet see.

And this... this is when it's best said : "I don't know... let's talk about it. Let's share life-- for all it's hurts, pain, joy and amazing love. Let's share life together."
