Quote
“But if in your Fear you would seek only love’s peace and love’s pleasure, Then it is better for you that you cover your nakedness and pass out of love’s threshing-floor, Into the seasonless world where you shall laugh, but not all of your laughter, and weep, but not all of your tears.” - Kahlil Gibran, The Prophet
We fear pain and so we avoid life. We cling to the familiar, which is also the stale, that which is incompatible with the natural flowing and cycling of life. The pruning and the molding of our character is a painful process that is harmonious with nature.
What do you do about heartbreak? You Cry
The goal is to experience ALL of life, every high, every low.
