EXPLORE 136 - Thank You!
Have you ever noticed a tree standing naked against the sky,
How beautiful it is?
All its branches are outlined, and in its nakedness
There is a poem, there is a song.
Every leaf is gone and it is waiting for the spring.
When the spring comes, it again fills the tree with
The music of many leaves,
Which in due season fall and are blown away.
And this is the way of life.
(Krishnamurti)
A Flickr friend is mourning her mother. Her mum left, quietly, just like a dry leaf eventually falls off the tree. She's gone; but she's only gone a bit further; her light is still shining - for her children, beloved ones, who miss her. She doesn't need the world any longer; she is quite happy where she is now. But we, who are still around, have to get to grips with the empty space, with no longer having our mother, our father, our brother and/or sister, our lover with us. .... This is the way of life.
Dear K., you're in my thoughts and prayers. After the pain it will get better again. As sure as this tree will make new leaves and flowers, when the season is coming for new leaves and flowers!
Love!
