I Trust You
Thank you for trusting
For opening up
You are a blossom.
I knew that you had a special flame burning inside you.
I did doubt at moments wondering if I had been mistaken
Had I gone up the wrong and lonely road?
But no road is lonely when you are in the company of intuition and magic
Connected to the bigger connection, to the whole picture of life.
I want to answer you, to tell you things
To take your hand and reassure you that you are not alone
That the “us” you are looking for is actually a “we”
Joining together there is an emergence, a merging.
Feeling alone and a misfit is actually a healthy reaction to
The collective unconsciousness of societal pressures.
What we choose to do with those feelings is what makes the difference
I could write encyclopedias on pain
The encyclopedia painanica
Best thing I can say is when you feel pain
Your best defense is too breathe really deep and let it keep passing through,
Trying to stop it just makes things hurt more and then it stays around longer
It rarely lasts forever
And like I always say
Feeling pain won’t kill you
But not feeling it will
You are stronger than you can imagine
Your heart is bigger than the pain that cuts it open
How else can you open a heart without “breaking” it open?
Roses have thorns, people have pain
And the depths of pain counter the heights of loves joys
You have the will and courage to continue to move through whatever arises
That is the truth.
You are at home where ever you are
The clothes on your back are the entire tent you need
Your body is the sacred alter
Your heart the embers in the warm hearth
I appreciate getting to this point with you here in this dialogue.
It is not often enough in life that we get to share the depths of ourselves
Freely and openly with judgments aside.
I don’t know you, but I trust you.
