Now that I’ve resumed a tai chi class, I can feel the healing in my muscles because I ache the next day.  Some people get this the day after a good gym workout. Funny how we observe these aches and say “wow, that was good for me.”‘  But when someone leaves our lives, dies, or doesn’t “love” us any more, the ache is not so welcomed.

Polarity is one of the natural “hows” of the universe.  What goes up, comes down.  A cold seasons shifts.  Leaves fall and grow back again.  Trees are tall and strong.  Then they fall.

It is amazing to me how the tiniest of organs, the most fleeting of and impossible to identify places, the mind, can create a completely different universe: I will eventually be completely happy.  Someone will love me and my life will be perfect.  I will come into a lot of money and then I will feel secure.

Hilarious.

I sit in ache.  I hear the birds of dawn chattering at a new day–again.  Nothing is happening except the clatter of the keys.  And all is well.  As it was in the beginning, is now and after.

So it ever is.
