The Teacher

The Teacher is far away, talking through the wires of a phone.
"Everyone knows I have cancer and I am busy."
"I'm not interested in your resume of spirituality."
"What you say is absolutely not true."
You missed one session of the group?
"How about doing this commitment some time when you have the time?"
"If you haven't been able to reach me by phone or email, what's the big deal?
I am busy and everyone knows that except you ...evidently."
"Is this something from your childhood that you expect people to be there?"
"Ok, it would be good for you to be in some kind of therapy."
