There is a field

Beyond right and wrong, there is a field. I will meet you there.~ Rumi

Today its a beautiful day.  The sky is impossibly blue, the greens are greener and the sun is directly speaking to each one of the cells in my body.  I have had that Rumi quote running in my head since I woke up.  I had a great breakfast, a fritatta I made myself of fresh mushrooms, onions, eggs and fresh pepper with a strong cup of coffee.  As I kept on thinking of this field beyond right and wrong that Rumi speaks of I thought about what is right and what is wrong, I thought about what that means to me and how it is completely different from your definitions.  I realize that we invest words with meanings that are personal and come from our personal life experiences.  What is wrong to you it might be perfectly normal, righteous and fine to me and vice versa.
I think this makes communication so hard and misunderstanding so easy.  Not because we are not aware that we have different points of view, but because we want ours to prevail, we want to be right, we want our view to be the one that prevails.
I have given that up a while ago.  I don't want to be right, I don't want to make you wrong.  I want my views to be respected as I put effort on respecting yours.  
Imagine this field beyond right and wrong.  Imagine this beautiful place where we can walk, maybe even hand in hand.  There is a light breeze, a beautiful sun and we have left all our preconceived notions of who we are far behind.  We are there to enjoy each other's company, we are not there to prove anything, to be better or worse, to be right or wrong.  We simply are.  In this field I don't need to understand all about you, or even agree with it, I just need to respect you and love you as you are.
Truly, let's meet in that field and lets make it be the field we walk on every day, our whole life.
Would you come with me for a walk?
