Forgetting our rectangle ways

I am beginning to believe that it is hope that brings us back to the wheel, to life. A colleague of mine recently told me about Mariame Kaba’s quote, “Hope is a discipline.” We hope for change and then we find the action within ourselves to return to a process, which will eventually shift the clay from a rectangle to the wild unknown that lives within it—or us. Sometimes it comes easy, and sometimes it is an act of love to hope with discipline.
