Understanding reality

I thought it to be sad, I see the dew bending the delicate tip of a leaf,
and a drop splatters onto the clay. I think: there must be something so small as to be devastated from this event. And I know that there is,
but from a visible perspective I see a sprout bursting out of the ground and its newborn green shimmers from the morning born moisture.
 
We must try to understand that the poor souls who have left this world are not in pain, they have only changed, but it is our grief that is the manifestation of pain on this earth.
 
It is compassionate to feel pain for the unfortunate.
In the case of Japan we have no choice but to accept this event.
And so do we have no choice, but to accept every changing moment
in our lives, even if they are not as cataclysmic. 
 
And if we do, then we can live through the devastation, and the love of this living experience, and we can evolve, and we can ascend.
 
I cry for them too, but I worry about my brothers and sisters, worried about how strong they can be, concerned about how many arms I will lovingly grow to hold on to you, before you accept reality, thus understanding thyself.
 
Realizing this is the only way we can move on.

You offer much truths in this piece and will take time for many to sort it out but God will always be there to guide and lean on. It will take great strength and trust. God bless...

Be always safe,
Karen

Excellent lines that fit well the devastation and the loss.

Very well said, Dan. Actually when we grieve for the lost one we grieve not for them but for ourselves. My parents have been moved on and after several years I still miss them. When they died I prayed for those who are left behind.
God bless,
Lew
