“I understand.” To hear those words from someone and see how true it rings from them is immense. Consider what it is to be understood and then given the time to work through and the space to develop on that. What a blessing that is. So rare and so valuable. And it is something we’re […]
Read More Dryden Shorts: Time, Space & UnderstandingAs you hold on to the past, you realise that you don’t have the ability to reach out to the future. Yet when you go to grab what lies ahead, it slips through the grasp. Probably because all we have today is what we have to handle. That can’t happen, unless we have the present […]
