All that matters

 All that matters

The heart seeks closure; a point when the search is over, the one sought found. Yet the torture is that it is never fulfilled, though many come into our lives, friends deeply loved and trusted, life long partners in marriages rocky, hard, yet also filled with mutual love and connectedness; still the heart senses to it’s sorrow, the more one loves, often the deepe the inner longing, the deep thirst  for union still sought, lost in an inner desert of desire.

People surround us, each beautiful in their own way. Smiles, humor, gentleness, the ability to love and hate, good and bad, we are each a mixture, each beautiful once known and listened to, the effort always worth  the struggle needed, growing in patients and fortitude, to understand the mystery of those who stand before us.

So much mystery hidden within each, many do not have the words to express what lies within the inner depths, the pain and joy experienced, the healings and yes the wounds received, often lost in acting out in ways that only lead to deeper pain……until one day someone sees them, listens, and the road to healing starts, though it is a long journey; this life seems set up for that, suffering, leading  to healing, or perhaps sadly to despair; each playing their part in life’s little and big dramas, in leading others in one direction or another.
