an eon’s worth of sorrow
pain gathered through the ages
an ancient feeling of loss
the struggle has continued
inside of you
for long enough
the light of acceptance
settles the agitation
and opens the door to letting go
what you felt before
will not always leave quietly
sometimes the past will roar
through your sensations
as you cut the root
of what you held for far too long
(silence)
Poem excerpted from the way forward by yung pueblo
REFLECTION:
- Do you have an attachment to who you used to be?
- Reflecting, do you have a different view of the world, different preferences, different likes and dislikes (different than your view 25, 10, 5 or even 1 year ago?)
- What have you outgrown?
- Can you embrace a new expression of you?
