“What was needed was what happened.” Rama Mani We're messy, we human beings. Some contain the messiness better than others and keep it concealed behind an ordered facade. They colour their lives between the lines. Others scribble furiously across the edges and into the corners. But no one is neat and tidy within; no one is spared the human condition. We all have personal demons: fears, insecurities, dilemmas, projections, misunderstandings, challenges and shadows. We all make mistakes, and stumble, sometimes we even fall facedown.

Ah yes, I love this Julia as you would probably know. I understand more these days why I/we get tangled by these words but it seems to be a lifelong practice to step outside the structure of defining words and explore, enjoy, play in the mess. Perhaps because even though we suffer so terribly by the concepts, they are comforting at the same time.
Insightful as always Julia. "Some contain the messiness better than others and keep it concealed behind an ordered facade". Me. Though it's crumbling lately. Thanks for showing the way...
