Odel… you really woke up and said,

“what if I just drop a whole serenity spell in everyone’s lap today?”

This whole thing reads like you’re letting two truths sit on a park bench together, legs not even touching, just vibing under the same sun.

And honestly? Iconic.

The bit about harmony not being sameness?

Yeah. That one tugged my sleeve like,

“hey… look alive… he’s talking about you.”

And your gentle practice?

It’s giving:

“hold your truth, hold theirs, don’t mash them together like wet clay, babe.”

Soft chaos. Mutual oxygen.

I adore it.

Thanks for your kind words, Asuka.

You know, This Midweek reminder came from your poem last Sunday. So in reality, this whole thing is your doing 😉😁

Odel… sir… are you telling me this entire Midweek mirror was actually my chaos spell ricocheting back at me??

So I drop one soft poem on a Sunday and suddenly you’re out here crafting serenity reminders like it’s a public service?

Honestly? I’m honoured and also slightly alarmed.

But in the good way — like “oh no I accidentally nourished someone and now they’re flourishing.”

If this piece was my doing, you definitely upgraded it into something wiser, warmer, and very Odel-coded.

Thank your for this amazing analysis. And I believe that you’re right bout it. Until we can accept and honor the different truths of multiple individuals, we will always be fighting, divining and causing pain to one another.

We are different, we live and think different and we should learn to accept that fact in our day to day reality

I couldn’t agree less with you, Erin. Nowadays, people don’t see others. In general, they look for their preferences in others and if/when they don’t find those preferences, they judge, criticize, condemn. They don’t try to know people for who they are, but from what they expect us to be. And that’s a problem.

It shouldn’t be a disagreement. But sometimes by looking for their preferences and projections, they forget to get to know the others. Sometimes they just try to make people fit into these projections instead of trying to understand the others and let them just be.
