The L'Arche Canada Foundation in Richmond Hill, Ontario, Canada with Jean Vanier's Daily Thoughts for Monday, 5 September 2016 "Finding Security"
Over-active people, it seems, can be fleeing from their own cry for friendship and love, from their own sensitivity and maybe from inner anguish and agitation. They may be afraid of their emotions, of their own sexuality. They need to reflect on their own deep needs and to rediscover the child in themselves which is crying because it feels alone. Our bodies need to relax, but so do our hearts, in secure and unthreatening relationships.[Jean Vanier, Community and Growth, page 178]
