Being human, we are constantly broken apart by experience. To reconcile our humanness means we are ever learning how to accept our suffering and to restore our Wholeness.
In Mark Nepo's "Seven Thousand Ways to Listen," he emphasizes the idea that human experiences often lead to feelings of fragmentation. Life's challenges and suffering can break us down, impacting our sense of self and connection to others. This ongoing struggle is a fundamental aspect of the human condition, shaping our journey through life.
Nepo highlights the importance of embracing this suffering as a pathway to healing and greater understanding. By accepting our experiences, we can learn to restore our sense of Wholeness, allowing us to grow and stay connected to what is sacred in our lives. His message encourages readers to find meaning in their struggles and to remain open to the lessons that come from them.
