There are two ways to live

There are two ways to live.

The first is easy. It's staying connected to people to a certain level - attending parties, making small talk, staying in the safe zone. Don't ask too many questions. Let people live their lives and live yours. That's one way.

The second is harder. It's staying connected to people on a deeper level - opening your heart, living deeply, taking risks. Asking the questions. Being willing to live intertwined lives. That's another way.

The second takes a commitment, from each of us.
And it may be harder, but it's also a source of joy.
