She said with sorrow and tears:
“I want to die.”
“I have no reason to live.”
“I have failed in everything I have done.”
“What is the meaning of my life?”
He replied:
“Life is what you make of it.”
“Nobody can tell you what your life should mean.”
“Have you felt like this before?”
She replied:
“I hate feeling so empty. I feel pain all over my body.”
After a long delay and soul searching she replied:.
“Yes. As a child.”
He replied:
“Perhaps you are healing what you could not face as a child.”
“You are not getting worse. You are getting better!”
“Be OK with what you are experiencing. Welcome it!”
“Your healing is an indication of love returning.”
She replied:
“Yes. Love!”
“That is what I forgot about!”
“The person that I loved the most hurt me the most.”
“I have equated love with hurt.”
“I avoided feeling hurt and hence I avoided love!”
“Ahah! I get it now.”
