This is an article I will read again and again for it offers great reminders of Life itself. And all the "twins" of sorrow and joy, cry and laughter, suffer and healing, struggling and resting that you mentioned.......each a yin and yang that is needed for each to appreciate the other for what it brings to that balance. Somewhere in the bible it states that we must thank God for when we are suffering.......something I struggle with until that suffering is past and the fog dissipates so I can realize finally. And while suffering is relative to each person's situation, it's important to know that 'things could always be worse', and to give gratitude for what is still "all is ever well, profoundly well beyond measure." "And we can rest assured in that.” Thank you for this much needed read.
Thank you for posting these beautifully smithed hymns of an ultimate understanding.
Your son (and yourself) are Buddhas ;-)
