Some of you know Shel Silverstein already.
If you haven’t read this since you were a little kid, it’s worth re-reading.
It’s about this shape that goes around looking for its “missing piece.”
Reading it again after so many years changes how the story feels. Life experience brings new awareness.
Today, I see a powerful message in this book: When you don’t feel the lack of something, you can’t desire it. And that’s when you can finally feel whole.
Similar to a lot of Hindu philosophies I learned through osmosis in India.
