Because it is only when we are suspended in mid-air with no landing in sight, that we force our wings to unravel and alas begin our flight. And as we fly, we still may not know where we are going to.

It is the eternal truth in the political as well as the mystical body, that, where one member suffers, all the members suffer with it. ↗
