no longer to inflict

pain

is not the same

as doing everything possible

to avoid it

it might be

the beginning

of a meticulous healing

hence the end

of a mournful suffering

how what we consider

to be wrong

can be the proper thing

to do

as an antidote

to an iniquity

committed

generations ago

or simply to heal

a wound

when guilt is no longer

an obstacle

mercy can begin to pervade

even under a heat

leaving

everyone

short tempered

of exhaustion

when the main concern

has always been

whether

the grief

inhabiting the heart

will ever end

the observation

that

grief is over

and

the pain has gone

is just as subtle

as it is

stunning

to link the profane

with the sacred

and the sacred

with the profane

is to link the instinct

with the intuition

and

the intuition with

the instinct

for divine wisdom

to run freely

through every layer of

our being

saying yes

when a no

is required

for truth to prevail

is more than anything

increasing chaos

no matter

how sincere the intensions

are

when one was never taught

to scold

and has not been able to learn it

by other means

yet

is given

a considerable amount

of patient leniency

it might be

wiser

just to let that very patient leniency rule

and leave the scolding to those

who knows

wow to scold

justly

touching grace

silently

is not a promise

about

being without pain

only

it offers the possibility

to stay with the pain

without suffering

when negligence

becomes a way

of life

and everything

is always

the other’s responsibility

it can be difficult

to love

and without love

it is difficult

to live

dissolving

a lifelong

lack

of confidence

can take

a couple of

sleepless

nights

for the new inner balance

to settle

definitively
