RE: Longing for Life, fearing to live

in #philosophy7 years ago

I used to teach my children. It is not a question of capacity (swimming well), but rather of motivation... what reason do you have for letting go of the side of the pool? Why risk safety for danger?
Your daughter will grow and letting go will be gradual. She will teach you as she needs to. It’s a jungle out there.

It is a jungle indeed and to negotiate it one must learn to swing from the trees, run on the ground and swim across rivers.
