Listening.

If you're really listening,
if you're awake
to the poignant beauty of the world,
your heart breaks regularly.
In fact, your heart is made to break;
its purpose is to burst open
again and again
so that it can hold
ever more wonders.
–Andrew Harvey,
The Return of the Mother

So, I really liked this quote and then I ordered the book. Is it all this good? What is it about anyway?
I love you!
