While I am not feeling particularly sorrowful this morning, we all have those times when we are. I love this poem, and I think it is worth keeping close by. Not to avoid feeling the sorrow, but to hold it respectfully, and listen to its teachings.
Much love to you all.
"Wave of sorrow,
Do not drown me now:I see the island
Still ahead somehow.
I see the island
And its sands are fair:
Wave of sorrow,
Take me there."
~ Langston Hughes
