Echoes

If you want to become whole,
first let yourself become broken.
If you want to become straight,
first let yourself become twisted.
If you want to become full,
first let yourself become empty.
If you want to become new,
first let yourself become old.
Those whose desires are few get them,
those whose desires are great go astray.

― Daodejing, Chapter 22

Haven't been well, not all done and good. Unsure of which parts have healed, though convinced that this mind and heart have been made dull. The soul seeks the origins of what those ghosts shout. From a not so distant past; a vivid image from yesteryear's dream.
