In the risk of meeting we can know the joy of not having control, of being in a dance of life with another, in which each of us is free and at the same time part of something which transcends our solitary existence. Finally, when we have found a profound relationship with another in which we willingly risk all our risks, we can know the joy of growing together as we grow separately.
If we are to be truly alive, a leap of faith into the unknown is necessary, the kind of leap we must make all of our lives, time after time. Through our faith in life, which encourages us to make that jump into the unknown, we find life for ourselves, and become the instruments of life to others.
