With every act of giving we weaken the power of grasping. The Buddha once said that if we knew as he did the fruit of giving, we would not let a single meal pass without sharing it.
Joseph Goldstein
Could it be that the empty universe
Was dreaming
And it dreamt up a fiery hand
To cast out the dust that led to us
A thought in the darkness
To toss the stars across the void
And bless them
With a spark of life

A large rather old looking crow caws
And a wind sweeps through my valley
Not everyone gets to have that kind of power
Watching from my patio I salute the crow
Who caws again
And flies away
To rejoin the rest of the world
James Lee Jobe
Loss itself is not a gift; loss is just loss. Pain is not okay just because we can grow from it. We never need to be blown apart just because we can learn from the act of piecing ourselves back together.
