We cannot change what life has handed us~~We were given the ability to experience emotions~~Anger is just as lovely and beautiful as love, and both are equally destructive to our beings~~Human beings, miraculous souls, can build...We can make big things such as buildings and structures and genomes and we can destroy such things~~~larger things, we may destroy~~~We make things larger than these fantastic fanciful creations; love, compassion, sorrow, passion, endless devotion, feeling to a depth indescribable by the most proliferative of poets~~We can look at a painting, a flower, an animal, a person, and see beauty beyond the beauty we use to describe our buildings and our structures~~We extend ourselves beyond "seeing" this beauty~~We feel it~~We are wonderful, amazing, miraculous beings~~We feel, we love, we become angry, experience sorrow, loss, devotion, betrayal, all important~~all as miraculous and illustrious as they are destructive when we find ourselves paddling frantically in the cold lake that is sometimes the blue dips in our lives~~the body of water seems to exhaust us, blanketed by a misty fog that is most convincingly obstructing the way to goodness~~we kick and gasp for there seems to be a grim end~~We have let these miraculous gifts that are within us, these beautiful core essences...love, anger, loss, devotion, sorrow, betrayal...go from beautiful things, to destructive things~~Ah, yes, you do know however~~within~~these are those very same things~~beautiful, miraculous, our core essence as humans~~Take a deep breath~~Feel it~~We are human...we are beautiful...we are miraculous~~Have you let beauty become destruction?~~~Amazingly so, because you are therefore, human, you suddenly realize that life has done it again~~Beauty and passion has arrived in disguise~~~It will pass~~Close your eyes, breathe deeply and return to love, passion, devotion, compassion, forgiveness, and see life...see others...as fantastic, beautiful, miraculous~~~We all innately have the gift...Yes~~~Live, Love, Seize it!
