The power of extremes lies in
The blurring of lines.
You don’t know when one emotion ends
and the other begins.
Because even though they’re opposites,
They’re connected.
Without one, the other does not exist.
And so it is.
That without pain,
Joy would not be understood.
Without emptiness,
Fullness would have no meaning.
Without indifference,
Love would not be celebrated.
In grief,
There is the value of having.
In suffering,
The value of surrender.
In anger, the value of compassion.
Though the heart may be fragile,
It is only because
It carries the vastness
Of human experience.
Though the mind feels burdened,
The weight it carries
Holds the liberation of humanity.
Though life’s balance is delicate,
Its teetering
Causes us
To awaken
And respond with wisdom.
May we always
Heed the call of our soul,
To blur the lines
And see the truth,
To come back home,
To align with each other,
To let go of the fear
Of touching what is truly alive.
