Sorrow

Sorrow seems to keep popping it's head out in my life. The other day I was reflecting on how much sorrow my life has included when I realized that my mind goes to places it seldom visits when everything is ticking along just fine. Sorrow drives me to intense contemplation of my self. I seem to retreat into a place where small things do not matter anymore. I spend more time with myself... there is a strange peace when I enter into the solitude that sorrow ushers me into.

I came to realize that sorrow is an important experience in this thing called life. I will stop trying to resist sorrow and explore the horizon it brings me to. What is there here for me to learn about myself? About you? About us?

Have peace in all... even in sorrow!
