When we descend all the way down to the bottom of a loss,

and dwell patiently with an open heart, in the darkness and pain,

we can bring back up with us the sweetness of life and the exhalation of inner growth.

When there is nothing left to lose, we find the true self –

the self that is whole, the self that is enough,

the self that no longer looks to others for definition, or completion, or anything

but companionship on the journey.

~ Elizabeth Lesser

it’s simple really, really it is….

inquiry for today~ the great wheel turns…..

how to love fiercely

one day we will put it all behind

and say it was just another

day on earth.

~Brian Eno
