“While my friend always spoke
about the sun, I kept speaking about the clouds, until one day I realized that
it was the sun that allowed me to see the clouds.”
Henri J.M. Nouwen
You must be exhausted.
Grief is like that.
Take a break from it and its dark
clouds and go outside.
You might be surprised to see the
sun. It has continually risen and set
even in your darkest hours.
Feel the sun on your face. Gather warmth as its rays travel from the top
of your head, across your shoulders and down your spine. Let its heat relax
your muscles and brightness clear your mind.
Look again at the clouds, note
their increased brightness and find happiness in that.
