Grief Welcomes
Love is joy and love is sorrow. There is no separation. Each energy lives within the other: joy in sorrow, sorrow in joy. We live this cycle for all of our days. We are waves of connection, and the yearning for connection. The truth is that we are connection, no matter how disconnected we may feel. Life is always present and opening new possibilities of living and loving.
But humanity experiences disconnections as a problem, as a mess — and we name it grief.
GRIEF UNIFIES
Grief takes many forms, such as death, divorce, anxiety, anger, depression, shame, conflict, loneliness, confrontation. Every time we experience a disconnection with ourselves, others, the world, or life itself, we grieve. And we grieve because we care.
We want to feel an intimate, fluid and vibrant union with life.
GRIEF RENEWS
Grief is not what separates us from living and loving. Instead, grief is the opening.
Grief allows us to be undone so that the love of who we are can continue to flow through us. Again and again, we grieve so that we may create a new relationship with ourselves and all of life. Living undone allows us to endlessly welcome our return to self and each other.
