Recently, cancer has presented itself to people I know and to family members of very close and dear friends of mine. I am no stranger to death or cancer but it’s been a while and it seems that suddenly it’s all around me. As I hear and observe the struggle of these afflicted people and their loved ones, I am filled with a slow silent grief. But there has been another affect.

An Invitation
Recently, cancer has presented itself to people I know and to family members of very close and dear friends of mine. I am no stranger to death or cancer but it’s been a while and it seems that suddenly it’s all around me. As I hear and observe the struggle of these afflicted people and their loved ones, I am filled with a slow silent grief. But there has been another affect.
My eyes are drawn to the beauty all around me. This is something I try to do every day but lately the beauty before me stuns me and fills my heart and soul with a beautiful sorrow. My body grows still, my heart slows, my eyes tear up and my breath becomes quiet as I see, as if for the first time, the clouds slow dancing through the blue sky, as I see an ancient Oak tree silhouetted against a moon lit night, as I see flowers opened and welcoming the bees into their folds, as I watch sunset color the horizon and slowly turn into twilight.
These days my tears come easy but they are not tears of grief but tears from the beauty of a piece of music or a song or a child’s laughter and quirky smile. They are tears with a mixture of wonder and sorrow. Sorrow because I know the moment is fleeting…soon to be lost forever. Soothing because I know these moments present themselves every day, all over the world. But most of all they are filling. They fill my heart and soul with divine peace. When I open myself up to these wonders I feel as if the divinity of our Universe has graced me with open arms and an open heart—reminding me that I am divine.
To all my brothers and sisters, I invite you to open up and see, smell, hear and touch the divine all around you and within you and dance a slow dance of celebration of the moments gifted to us each day. Take my hand, my heart, my love and embrace me for I am another you.

Positive thoughts despite the suffering all around. The whole creation is divine, so too the destruction however painful and long drawn they are - siva
