Student: Yes, and I want to find out what I can say to my granddaughter about the voices inside--that would stand the test of time about a democracy of voices inside. But how can you give guidance to a child, like a grandchild, about something like that? What can you say to a child about, you know, hearing the voices, and being able to allow them to be, and knowing which one is the most spiritual or uplifting?

And so on Sunday I was sitting on my patio thinking about that and what would be the most beneficial way that I can express to her my own reflection on what she said.

And this is what I spoke to this person when I relayed this poem to her on Monday, but she didn’t read it while I was there. She read it when I left.

So I’ll read it . . .
