The Geometry of Breaking or Healing
peacegroover@deviantartThose are the two options.
To be part of the destruction of that which is precious,
even the life of the enemy.
Or a conduit for the substance that binds up wounds and the broken-hearted.Even when flaws cause me to hurt those around me or engage in broken thoughts and so, for a time, join with the razing power,
if I am repentant, make the necessary changes, and return to the healing stream,
then the danger of losing my humanity is minimized.And, if at the end of my life when I am weighed in the balance, and my contribution to fixing outweighs the breaking, then I will be satisfied to rest easy in the knowledge that in some small way I was an addition to the healing sum.

One of the most thoughtful (and hilariously fun!) gifts our amazing realtor gave us after helping us find our dream home was this perfectly fitting doormat:
“Shalom, y’all!” 😄❤️🏡It’s the ultimate blend of cultures:
🕊️ Shalom – Hebrew for peace, hello, and goodbye
🤠 Y’all – Classic Southern slang for you allOnly in the South would a doormat greet you with Hebrew and Southern hospitality.
It’s so me—a Southern home, Israeli heart, and a whole lotta love.#ShalomYall #HebrewByInbal #SouthernCharm #Shalom #HomeSweetHome #LanguageAndCulture
