In between the agony |

In between the agony lies a blessing I can’t see but it pulses like a thing alive waiting to be believed. But blessings are like confetti not able to withstand the slightest breath of disregard for their manner of being and they hover momentarily before simply flying away. And so I know to wait; blessings come dressed in disguise but already I can feel between the trappings of sheer agony an unformed blessing embryo waiting to be born and yet, and yet, blessings must wait for I too am dressed in disguise. To clear the mind of agony no easy task and yet must be before the blessing can appear and stand in its own worth before the one who feels but cannot know the shape and form of what not yet is born!

Thank you so much, Kaoru. I think I pretty much write what gets told to me as perhaps most of us do but I must admit that I can handle taking the credit. Helen |

To clear the mind of agony no easy task and yet must be before the blessing can appear I love these lines... even if I find the advice hard to follow. *S* Excellent! *S* |

Honey, may there be bunches and bunches of blessings in your life! ~ and may the moments of agony be very few and far between! Linda |
