So what I love about both of those is by resting our heart in what is true, what's in the heart comes out through the hands in the world.

So how do we practice personally resting our heart in what is true and giving ourselves to acts of ultimate concern?

And I think those are two wonderful practices to devote ourselves to.

So the poem I'd love to end with is one of my poems called Free Fall.

If you have one hour of air,

and many hours to go.

You must breathe slowly.

If you have one arm's length and many things to care for, you must give freely.

If you have one chance to know God and many doubts, you must set your heart on fire.

We are blessed.

Each day is a chance.

We have two arms.

Fear wastes air.

You know, my parting words is that life is more than anything we could dream of if we truly meet each other and meet ourselves right here, right now.

I don't want to run into the bathroom.

All right, good.

Well, thank you both.

This has been so wonderful to be in such a deep space with you both.
