We spend so much time trying to figure everything out, trying to fix, explain, solve, control.
But life is not a puzzle, it's a wave and you were not meant to carry the wave, you were meant to let it move through you.
The joy, the fear, the heartbreak, the moments that didn't make sense till much later.
You were not broken, you were becoming. I think the sadness comes from holding on to what was meant to pass.
We grip the moment, the person, the feeling hoping to freeze it in time but everything you have ever loved
was borrowed and the beauty of it was never in the holding. It was in the being.
So if you are hurting don't rush to escape it. If you are lost don't race to find directions.
Feel it, all of it, because this too is part of the dance and if you listen closely enough,
even your pain is trying to teach you how to be alive.
