"Being "Scratched" is one of those Jesus things.
IT is a GIft you give to humanity.
It is a gift you give to yourself."

This is so beautiful, Leslie. This whole piece is deep, deep, and full of your soul, coming from a place that is not easy to be in. These words touch me, all of them, and so rich. We are all "scratched," and I feel that myself. I know that feeling. Isn't that where our tears come from?

"When you dig into your hole you will find horrific things
that will scare the hell out of you.

You will find things that don't even belong to you,.
You will find torment, pain, grief.
You will find hurt, and sadness that are asks to be cried
out, screamed out, yelled out--Mainly you will find
Stuff that asks to be LOVED."

Yes, we are all obligated to feel our "scratchness," and to live from that space where love is demanded. It feels as though this is where our our connection to our fellow being originates, and when we forget, we don't connect. That's when others living in their "scratchness" is offensive and scary to us. We don't want to be around it, because it reminds us of our own pain, and keeps us from our own love.

Leslie, you are a reminder to me to be in that love, and to allow my "scratchness" to be lived, breathed, experienced. Thank you for going into your own depths so that you could bring back these words. I am touched and grateful, and thank you very much. You are a shining soul. Peace and love. gregg
