Sadness
last revised July 10, 2006

How can so much sadness share the same heart with so much joy?

How can love be so painful? How can I feel love so intensely that it is as if I am in a warm sea of love, as if love is without boundaries or end, without time? And yet feel this ache in the corner of my heart that just won't go away?

Why is life bitter sweet?

Why is the world broken? Why do people hate and fear? Why do we make war against each other when each should be the other's only joy? Why are we so lonely when we are surrounded by people?

Why can't we see what is right under our noses?

Why do I keep trying to share, when my gifts are turned away again and again? What are people afraid of? Why do I try to live as if the world is perfect when I know it is not? Why don't I just give up and numb myself to everything? Why do I keep having these visions?

Why do I keep saying Yes?
