Tears - Love - and a physical sign of letting go

I know not to stop the tears
when they come
seem to be doing alot lately

Letting go
of old ideas
acceptance
things change
I change
you change
we change
love

Good news when you get sober and well
the rocket to the 4th dimension
picks you up and takes you to the most amazing places
its true

Its an wonderful thing to
see someone lifted up from the depths
and rocketted off
its what we get sober for
and at the same time
I feel some kind of sadness
and at the same time
I feel so joyful
to hear yet another person
finding themself
their calling
where they fit

Letting someone in
and letting them go with love
lessons to be learnt
thoughts that come

God, why let do you suggest I let people in when I feel like this when they go?
Cos johno...
if you hadnt, just think of all the laughs
you would have missed out on!
making friends is Gods Will
isolating alone was not

You will be ok
you will continue to breathe
she isnt going anywhere
and i will be keeping an eye on her
ok?

ok?
ok
heres a tissue...now go to bed
ok

Its all like waves
come and go
ebb and flow
enjoy the moments
all of them
you have with anyone and everyone
its precious
and the memories you get to keep for free
are so damn worth it

God?
Yes Johno
The gift of friendship
This is a different love
its real
and its lovely
and its safe
and its like no other
and johno it DOESNT end
this kind of Love is forever


Now will you go to bed?
ok, nite God
sleep well

"My joy is like Spring, so warm it makes flowers bloom all over the Earth. My pain is like a river of tears, so vast it fills the four oceans."
Call Me By My True Names by Thich Nhat Hanh

Eckhart Tolle says something like a very refined state is when joy and pain are experienced as one. Cant remember which track it is on the CD. but basically all feelings become one. "One taste" as Ken wilber says. Meaning you have both at the same time. In a good way though. If you know what I mean.

i love it when God tells me to just go to bed.. telling me i'm okay.. He is always there - WITHIN us - knowing what's best for us. I love the simple answers like "go to bed".. or "do nothing". "not yet"..

your post today gave me chills - in a good way. tears cleanse i think.

i DID have relaxing weekend. hubby isn't paying me enough attention though! BUGGER! We just don't seem to be on the same "wave length" sometimes. marriage i suppose.

i read about a new compassion meditation recently that I'm going to post soon. it includes these words that i have for you tonight my friend: may you be free of pain and sorrow. may you be happy and well.

you are loved
