Give yourself permission
to rest, and be silent,
and do nothing.
Love this aloneness, friend.
Invite warm, curious attention
deep inside your bones.
Until there is no loneliness,
only radical self-love.
You are worthy in this stillness.
You are full in this emptiness.
There is no "original sin".
You are not guilty here.
Loneliness is the gateway
to intimacy with all things.
To a great Togetherness.
You are one with the stars now.
– Jeff Foster
