Today I found I had to speak words of painful honesty. So I came to this spot again for its calming sounds and beauty, and the color I just can’t resist at this time of year. 

“Honesty is reached through the doorway of grief and loss. Where we cannot go in our mind, our memory or our body is where we cannot be straight with another, with the world, or with our self. The fear of loss … is the motivator behind all conscious and unconscious dishonesties: all of us are afraid of loss … and all of us therefore, are one short step away from dishonesty… Honesty lies in understanding our close and necessary relationship with not wanting to hear the truth.” (David Whyte, Consolations)
