Tragedy

When tragedy befalls on us; there is usually no understanding, great sadness, great despair, great fear.  So much unknown is trickled throughout it. 

This is when we usually band together, closer then ever and know - really know - what is important to us in this life of living.  Time sometimes seems to stop.  We walk around uncertain, unknowing and feeling what only our bodies and minds will allow us to feel. 

Something happens within us that cooperates or turns off and on automatically.  Survival mode can kick in.  Just going through the motions, every moment is sprinkled heavily with the truth of this tragedy.

We wonder why...

Sometimes the why is never answered.  Sometimes, maybe much later, this can force us to see through a different filter or lens.  Sometimes things become more clear.  Sometimes beauty grows out of it many years later.  Sometimes we just have to live with it.

We survive.  We keep going.

May you believe that you always will survive and you always will keep going no matter what happens in your lifetime.  May you somewhere, someway, if tragedy knocks your world, always know the part of you that is your spirit, the light.

Is there always a part of us that keeps growing to walk our life path.  Is this a path that is given to us the day we are conceived to be in this human world. 

Is this truly what it means to BE U.

May God bless our world and everyone in it.  May we know peace amongst the confusion.

May one day we just live through peace.
