Let there be spaces in your togetherness,
\nAnd let the winds of the heavens dance between you.<\/p>\n
Love one another but make not a bond of love:
\nLet it rather be a moving sea between the shores of your souls.
\nFill each other’s cup but do not drink from one cup.
\nGive one another of your bread but do not eat from the same loaf.
\nSing and dance together and be joyous, but let each one of you be alone,
\nEven as the strings of a lute are alone though they quiver with the same music.<\/p>\n
Give your hearts, but not into each other’s keeping.
\nFor only the hand of Life can contain your hearts.
\nAnd stand together, yet not too near together:
\nFor the pillars of the temple stand apart,
\nAnd the oak tree and the cypress grow not in each other’s shadow.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
