Perspectives...

Tears, idle tears, I know not what they mean. Tears from the depth of some divine despair Rise in the heart, and gather in the eyes. Have you ever cried and did not know the reason why?

" You are strange business. You have the energy of the sun in you, but you keep knotting it up at the base of your spine. You are some weird kind of gold that wants to stay melted in the furnace, so you won't have to become coins." - Rumi

In the wake of everything that's going on in Connecticut, most people who have come in touch with this tragedy have transformed  at least a small piece of them. A 20 year old guy killed 26 people in an Elementary School which included 20 children, between the ages of 5-10. Tragedies like this take some time to sink in, the why's keep looming and the urge to see what it all meant is mind blowing. Why are people killing each other? Why are we doing this?  What can we do? I certainly don't know. All I know is love is the most important thing we have. To love and be loved is the greatest thing in life....what else is there? What are we seeking...there is nothing. There is only ash left...
