"The worm is one of the only creatures that grows from bing cut. Mysteriously, if you cut a worm in two, each half becomes whole, and you have two worms.
What is it in how the worm lives that allows it to grow from its pain, and how might we translate that to being human It lives in humus -the soil- inside and out.
Perhaps the secret to growing from our wounds is to live close to the earth, to live with our hearts and minds and bellies always in touch -both inside and out - with that which is larger than we are.
Perhaps, when cut in two, it is a life of humility, of risking to be at one with the soil of our experience, that allows us to heal into something entirely new." Mark Nepo
