The Familiar is Strange

I have spent the last few days with my folks.

As always, my experience brings to mind a quote from Ram Dass:

“If you think you are enlightened, try spending a week with your family.”

It’s funny how hard it is to be your highest self around those closest to you, but my parents and I are all doing well enough this round.

It’s a unique challenge to be related to others.
