[QUOTE="Echolette, post: 629532, member: 17269"] Wow. that is completely awful. and so consistent with all of our stories. This was a good place, Child. Smile wryly at yourself again. You'll find that place again. I am starting to understand that it may not end in our lifetimes. Child...you have come so very far from when I first "met" you. You know the questions. You know how to lean in. You know how to find your balance. And for now it is OK, even necessary, to cry and bang your head on the wall. We develop like a widening gyre. You are passing near the place of pain, not as close as last time, but it feels worse because you had come to believe you had grown past it...you didn't grow past it Child, but you are stronger. So much stronger. "Have patience with everything unresolved in your heart and try to love the questions themselves as if they were locked rooms or books written in a very foreign language. Don't search for the answers, which could not be given to you now, because you would not be able to live them. And the point is to live everything. Live the questions now. Perhaps then, someday far in the future, you will gradually, without even noticing it, live your way into the answer" Rumi and Echo too. [/QUOTE]
