The one to be
Proverbs 4:18 New English Translation
18 But the path of the righteous is like the bright morning light,
growing brighter and brighter until full day.
To be one with you, I need to be outside myself.
How can I give myself if I deeply stay within my being?
I don’t mind stepping out far away from myself,
But is this worth it unless I divide my inner-being?
If I stay deep within, I know I am far beside myself.
If I don’t share myself, there is nothing but emptiness
To be full appears from outside the one I shared with
And that fulfills the “all in me” to grow in fruitfulness
Jan Wienen
