026_Poetry Break: Everything Is Waiting For You by David Whyte
In this episode Becky and Bryce share a poem by David Whyte, a poet who has deeply impacted each of them. David Whyte's writing explores the timeless relationship of human beings to their world, to creation, to others, and to the end of life itself. He makes his home in the Pacific Northwest, where rain and changeable skies remind him of the other, more distant homes from which he comes: Yorkshire, Wales and Ireland.
In this poetry break you'll hear the hosts read Everything Is Waiting For You a few times and then reflect on lines that stand out to each of them, followed by where those words intersect their own lived experiences.
