Quote

If Krishna likes you, he will give you everything.
But if Krishna loves you, he will take it all away.

Chogyam Trungpa

The bad news is you’re falling through the air,
Nothing to hang on to,
No parachute.
The good news is there’s no ground.

Once again from love to grief

The peaks of love

Is in direct proportion

To the depths of grief

Both of which could fill the Mariana trench
Infinite times over
Spilling out and birthing all the oceans

There are moments that come

Moments that I love so deeply
But know that I must to let go
Because in that moment to let go
I see that there was nothing to hold

It’s disorienting

I wish the word bitter sweet
Captured it’s fullness

This knowing evades concept
Quotes like the ones above
Resonate

But don’t cause the grip to lessen

The arrival of Love must be known
Must be felt
Must be cherished
Equal to it’s passing

And the arrival of Grief must be known
Must be felt
Must be cherished
Equal to it’s passing

All to be transmuted
To ease
To Love
Once again

And that is the lesson
