That Naomi Shihab Nye poem cuts right to the heart of my grief for the current war in Gaza. Thank you, Rosemerry.

Beginner's mind is so powerful. Whenever I think I know enough to write something useful, I remind myself to remember who I was and what I thought before I learned what know now. And I do my best to write from that place, the humble, doesn't-know-everything place. Because we all are beginners. We all start from somewhere. Being an expert is boring and isolating.
