| BkIII:2.II.2 | How could I become one with you if I did not go through the whole of human experience? When a newborn child cries in her crib, what does the father do? Wait until the child is grown and can by herself go to him? No. He goes to where the child is, picks her up in his arms, draws her to his chest and becomes one with her, nourishing and satisfying her. In that movement the father and the child become one. This is a metaphor that illustrates in a simple way what happened to you; and when it happened to you, it happened to everyone. |
