Had I never been hurt; I wouldn’t know how to heal and be healed.

Had I never hurt someone, I wouldn’t know how to forgive and ask for forgiveness.

Had I never dove deep, I wouldn’t know how to soar high

Had I never surrendered to pain, I wouldn’t know how to surrender to pleasure.

Had I never known sorrow, I wouldn’t know gratitude

Had I never known death, I wouldn’t know birth and life

Had I never known contraction, I wouldn’t know how to open, appreciate expansion and
receive abundance.

Had I never known loneliness, I wouldn’t know how to cherish and enjoy our togetherness
and reciprocate Intimacy.

Had I never known how human I am – I wouldn’t be open to the divine revelation within me.

Words that came to me at night. I love when words come, tell me a story, draw my attention
to the infinite, complex fullness of life.

I feel that these revelations are collective, I feel that they are the basic lessons of life as a
human being. When I am open to learning, I experience meaning and depth.
