I walked the labyrinth Wednesday night at sangha at Elaine & Bob's and was asking it about how to open my heart more. One of the thoughts that came to me was the Giving Tree story. I've struggled with that story given the gender of the tree and the boy and the female tree "sacrificing" life for the boy. But I'm reopening to that story and your post helped me to do that a bit more. It also validated my labyrinth experience. So thank you. I hope you'll also share any rituals you might be aware of that have helped you to open. Thanks! Thanks for this, Jonathan.
