YOU AND I

You and I...
We meet as strangers, each carrying a mystery
within us. I cannot say who you are.
I may never know you completely.
But I trust that you are a person in your own
right, possessed of a beauty and value that are
the Earth's richest treasures.

So I make this promise to you:
I will impose no identities upon you, but will
invite you to become yourself
without shame or fear.
I will hold open a space for you in the world and
allow your right to fill it authentically.
For as long as your search
takes, you have my loyalty.
