About Me
- Leah
- Several years ago, somewhere in the jumble of literature that made up my world, I stumbled onto these lines: "But yield who will to their separation,/ My object in living is to unite/ My avocation and my vocation/ As my two eyes make one in sight./ Only where love and need are one,/ And the work is play for mortal stakes,/ Is the deed ever really done/ For Heaven and the future's sakes." -- Robert Frost, Two Tramps in Mud Time. Since that day, I've been frantically searching for their realization: the moment when love and need, self and other, work and play, selfishness and self-sacrifice are one.
