After Transcendence, Choosing Reality

How grief and belonging shape us after transcendence, forcing us to return to reality.

Thought of the Day

The innocent girl was crying,

in the boat on the sea,

with light there in her soul,

and tears in her thoughts.

One day the crying

came like the Rio Bravo,

and lighting up her Love

she dreamed of a life without haste

and light in her heart.

Girl you who were growing

as the seas grow for me,

be happy forever,

for even if the years pass,

you will always be that girl,

in a woman's body.
