Shared Liberation

A quote I got from Sara Groves blog that just seems to resonate with me:

"If you have come to help me you are wasting your time. But if you have come because your liberation is bound up with mine, then let us work together. - Aboriginal activists group, Queensland, 1970s

Wow! Who, needing help, really wants to be "less" than his helper? And who, giving help, should feel greater than the one he is helping? But the brotherhood of being liberated with the one you are liberating... and being liberated with the one who is liberating you... that is beautiful!
