The tree of human existence can only reach toward the sky when its roots have sunk deep into the darkness.
Joy, is the luminous part of our being, like branches that stretch toward the sun and dance in the breeze. But sorrow is a journey inward, into the silence that confronts us with our bare truth.
Shallow joy, is like a rootless tree, beautiful, yet fragile. And sorrow without hope is like roots with no branches, bound to the earth, yet fruitless.
A person reaches balance only when they have learned to live in the light and find meaning in the dark, the taller the tree of the soul grows, the deeper its roots must reach. This is the law of growth: pain and joy are both teachers, and together they illuminate the path to awakening. 17 replies
