To hold and to be.
A multitude of all things and One.
Yes, there is pain and suffering that will have you questioning the world and God and yourself -
Yes, there is beauty and hope - and that moment when you realize
*You are the miracle.*
You! Existing at this time, in this space, and all the timelines before and to come.
I sat on the mountain top and wept, and it healed me.
I came back to a soft bed and heavy news, and wept again.
I remembered all the times where my tears were swept off my cheek with a well meaning, “aw little girl, please don’t be sad.”
So I learned then and again that my rawness brings discomfort.
Little girl, do not apologize for your truth.
Woman, Creator of life, do not hide who you are and what made *you.*
And with a heart heavy with grief, I yelled at the sky proclaiming “Enough is enough! What more can I take?”
And then laughed.
Because - yes, there is pain and my pain is big.
Yes, there is light and my light is big, too.
And so I hold both.
Realizing for the first time, there is room.
We are told there are limits, but I keep living and reaching and finding that maybe, just maybe, my capacity *is* limitless.
You cannot destroy pain.
So I let it live.
And then… I turn it to gold.
