well my friends, i am nursing heartbreak & find myself at a lost for words these past few days. heartbreak? hmmm... a totally 'non-Buddhist' feeling of complete delusion & attachment... right? i know. but i'm still aching y'all. for whatever reason {maybe cause i have more free time to think} today reality, ripe with its zillion questions & reflections has washed over me... leaving me quiet... a bit sad & feeling quite exposed.
so i am off... retreating to music & art as i am inclined to do when 'reality' is not to my liking. i leave you though with lyrics that at the current moment i have on 'repeat' from corinne bailey rae ... like a star {words so good... i gotta include all of 'em}... if i could write melodies, this would be mine...
writing releases me. damn... i'm feelin better already!:-)
just like a star across my sky,
just like an angel off the page,
you have appeared to my life,
feel like i'll never be the same.
just like a song in my heart,
just like oil on my hands,
honor to love you.
still i wonder why it is,
i don't argue like this,
with anyone but you.
we do it all the time,
blowing out my mind.
you've got this look i can't describe,
you make me feel i'm alive,
when everything else is au fait,
without a doubt you're on my side.
heaven has been away too long,
can't find the words to write this song of your love.
still i wonder why it is,
i don't argue like this,
with anyone but you.
we do it all the time,
blowing out my mind.
now i have come to understand the way it is it's not a
secret anymore,
'cause we've been through that before.
from tonight i know that you're the only one.
i've been confused and in the dark,
now i understand.
i wonder why it is,
i don't argue like this with anyone but you.
i wonder why it is i wont let my guard down to anyone but you.
we do it all the time,
blowing out my mind just like a star across my sky.
just like an angel off the page,
you have appeared to my life,
feel like I'll never be the same.
just like a song in my heart,
just like oil on my hands
Peace & OM!:-)
mechie
life is short. put all aside & just love y'all... as good, deep & long as you can...
love is the every only god
who spoke this earth so glad and big
even a thing all small and sad
man, may his mighty briefness dig
for love beginning means return
seas who could sing so deep and strong
one queerying wave will whitely yearn
from each last shore and home come young
so truly perfectly the skies
by merciful love whispered were,
completes its brightness with your eyes
any illimitable star
~ee cummings
sal you are the sweetest! always coming & dropping beauty. makes me feel like flying just so that i can step back & take in the splendor:-)

To me being a Buddhist means you're open to feeling everything, not clinging or pushing away. Even if it's heartbreak.
I think you're doing just fine, Buddha-wise.
Love, M
