Today I have felt shaky. I can try and understand this or I can just be with it as best I can. There is a time for working on stuff, this isn’t one of those times.
Its a kind of beautiful place, tender, bitter with a little sweet edge. Nothing in life is just one thing. Its always a combination of feelings, emotions, thoughts, experiences, sensations. I can’t pin this moment down. Its totally elusive to the world of concepts, yet I, like us all, continue to try.
Is it sadness or tenderness or vulnerability? Whatever it is, there have been times I have tried to deny it, push it away, another cloud in the vast sky I don’t want to be intimate with. Yet this cloud has a beautiful and poignant silver lining.
