As a symbol of peace

 

 

 

 

One who wants to carry on a dialogue must be friendly,

and stoop down towards the other and set the self aside.

Have attention for the other, lean towards the other.

Must not want to possess; may not take possession

 

Make only a few provisions. It is better not to offer

careful recommendations from time to time.

Put in an invisible hand; think inaudibly in another way,

try not to have the airs of an adult,

and see mistakes not as something shameful -- allow mistakes.

 

However, have the right to show concern to feel and share worry,

to mutually educate, to take each other seriously to eat and drink together,

to advance fantasies, to use impatience creatively, to last through rebellion,

to be sad together.

 

Does not always know everything better than others.

It is best not to know anything better but console.

Share hopelessness, create warmth, feels ties,

Love.
