About this listen
In this episode, Phil Rowe brings together two powerful poems that speak to the burden and beauty of being human.
One poem is beloved. The other, more quietly known.
One, fierce with instruction. The other, still with truth.
Together, they offer a reflection on how we carry ourselves through the world — and what we pass on.
Join Phil as he explores the unspoken tension between advice and acceptance, striving and surrender.
