I think Emily Dickinson had it right:
"Tell all the truth but tell it slant...
The truth must dazzle gradually
Or every man be blind."
I think we mostly are blind. Seeing clearly is much too painful, or just too much. Who we are, and what we get from our interactions with our fellow humans-hard to sort out the selfish from the honest, the real from the form, unless we slow down, breathe, and find the means to look at it straight on. And what good comes of that?
