READING.
Settle.
Feel the weight of your body and the quiet in your heart.
Notice the word or phrase that calls your attention
or is most interesting to you in some way…
Banish Expectations: There is no wrong way or wrong choice.
Text holds the possibility of revealing you to yourself by what it stirs.
This is a Creative Process. It is playful and disobedient.
From ‘In the temple of a bird’
~Bejan Matur (Kurdish/Turkish)
I walk with the thing I cannot translate.
~
The path keeps changing its color.
I walk with the thing I cannot translate.
It follows like weather I can’t predict.
from ‘He came to me’
~Maram al-Masri (Syrian)
I open my hands and something unnamed arrives.
~
Sometimes I wait without waiting.
I open my hands and something unnamed arrives.
It stands beside me like a quiet question.
