I recently heard author and poet, Mark Nepo, speak on Oprah's Super Soul Conversations podcast.
A beautifully poetic man who shares his personal story of awakening through surviving two separate battles with cancer.
Some of the beautiful words Mark shared (including the powerful poem, "Freefall" above) during this conversation - have a listen to the full conversation if these words resonate with you!
"To be broken is no reason to see all things as broken."

"We are asked to learn how to keep asking for what we need, only to practice accepting what we are given."
~
"The practice of listening is one of the most mysterious, luminous, and challenging art forms on Earth. Each of us is by turns a novice and a master, until the next difficulty or joy undoes us."
