Suffering is redemptive. More than anyone I've known, I see in you and your own
peculiar struggles that pain and confusion may be transformed into an occasion for
compassion and wisdom.

A Recovery
Breakthrough by Ginger Zyskowski
The tears appear.
Again they push up
to overflow from
somewhere deep.......
or maybe something old but trapped,
through a crack in my stoned self
is seeping through.....
to remind me that there is
still someplace to get to .....
saturated with the wetness of
someone's cries of pain.
It lets me know with the
pressure of its efforts
to come through,
that there is still much to be done .....
to break away the solidified peripherals
and come bursting out
into the light.
The soul's river is ready to
flood
and the cresting is not in sight.
It's the same as the awe of the
forces of nature .....
Once the flow is started,
it continues until it meets its source.
All I can do is stand by
and watch the dam break .....
Then we'll both be free.
