How Wonder Full Is Life? If You Choose To Create The Humble Space....
You will be humbled. Oh yes. Brought to your knees. Many, many times.
What you thought you knew will occasionally dissolve into nothingness.
Your most brilliant insights, your astonishing expertise, your life’s work, it can all crumble to the ground.
Sometimes without warning.
You will be asked to begin again, and again, and again.
And again.
(Did I say, this is not a path for the faint of heart?)
Oh yes, you will touch the bliss and joy of existence, for sure!
You will laugh at the simplicity of things, some days, of course!
But you will also be asked to confront your deepest fears, face the darkness and the night within, go to the places where the unloved creatures dwell.
You will step into pockets of grief you never knew were there.
You will cry a billion tears for the lost and abandoned children, within and without.
You will rage to the sky, to your parents, to all the teachers who failed you, to the lies you were fed, to the ones who never showed up when you needed them the most.
You will tremble with fear some days.
Some days the ground will open up and swallow you and spit you back out.
Sometimes you will think you’ve reached the end of the path, and then you will find yourself back at the damn beginning.
Sometimes you will feel like giving up.
Sometimes you will feel like you’ve made no progress at all.
Sometimes you will curse the day you started out on this journey.
But you are healing.”
