The L'Arche Canada of Toronto, Ontario, Canada Daily Thoughts with Jean Vanier for Sunday, 29 January 2017 "Taking responsibility"
Each one of us is both body and spirit. Each one has his/her own physical make- up, psychological history and spiritual journey. We are one person. However, we risk becoming fragmented within ourselves and allowing divisions to become rooted in us. It is not just the pain of our past lives that prevents us from being fully alive and restricts in sadness; it is also our refusal to look at and accept reality, to live in the truth of who we are and to take responsibility for our own lives.[Jean Vanier, Seeing Beyond Depression, page 79]
