Reading: When Things Fall Apart…again

Revisited my notes last week from Pema Chödrön‘s “When Things Fall Apart: Heart Advice for Difficult Times” when saw it was her 80th birthday and 20th anniversary of the book – timeless…and timely:

“We think that the point is to pass the test or overcome the problem, but the truth is that things don’t really get solved. They come together and they fall apart. Then they come together again and fall apart again. It’s just like that. The healing comes from letting there be room for all of this to happen: room for grief, for relief, for misery, for joy.”– Pema Chödrön

Much gratitude for her life’s work and teachings.
