A Long Time in Coming

Hi fellow wanderers, discoverers, mourners, rejoicers, 
this post has been a long time in coming, and so has a return to joy. But now, with the return to joy, these words are for you.

Grief is not forever. 
Hope is not gone. 
Pain is not the absence of Joy. 

Agony and Ecstacy are sides of the same coin; if you can howl in utter desperation as you are breaking apart, it is certain that you can find your way back to wholeness. Be where you are, and don't be afraid to feel. Don't be afraid to break. Don't be afraid to be afraid, but only be afraid of not fully living. And even then, don't stay there. Live. 

Love.
