Drink first at your well. Be still for once and find out who you are. Interrupt the lonely assertion that insists on a desperate reach for love. Stop and feel it all. Be unafraid to descend and know the deeper, darker waters. Welcome back those abandoned sorrows. Guide them with discipline and tenderness toward the molten core where clarity is born in dissolution. Even as you find yourself ground down again and again follow the thread of undeniable truth all the way through. You already have the courage. You’ve seen too much by now to return for long to the dull drumbeat the habitual comfort of what you once thought you knew. Align with your strength, the radiance of your creative will, the passion that can be counted on, the choice for nothing less than reality. Throw it all on this fire If you want to trust your heart. Discover that what you are has enough space for this, is being carved out by this, blazed in the agony ecstasy of this, for love. ~~Luke Anderson |
