When you are sorrowful look again in your heart, and you shall see that in truth you are weeping for that which has been your delight.
For life and death are one, even as the river and the sea are one.
When the earth shall claim your limbs, then shall you truly dance.
You would know the secret of death. But how shall you find it unless you seek it in the heath of life? The owl whose night-bound eyes are blind unto the day cannot unveil the mystery of light. If you would indeed behold the spirit of death, open your heart wide unto the body of life. For life and death are one, even as the river and sea are one. For what is it to die but to stand naked in the wind and to melt into the sun?
Only love and death will change all things.
My house says to me, "do not leave me, for here dwells your past." And the road says to me, "Come and follow me, for I am your future." And I say to both my house and the road, "I have no past, nor have I a future. If I stay here, there is a going in my staying; and if I go there is a staying in my going. Only love and death change all things."
If you would behold the spirit of death, open your heart wide unto the body of life. For life and death are one, even as the river and sea are one.
When you are sorrowful, look again.
