Dating : Walk Through The Fire

Someone who I love so dearly got really bad health news.

I spent the whole day asking God not to take her. This was my prayer.

When I spoke to her she reminded me that we must walk through the fire and let the smoke follow behind us.

And then I called him because I knew that he would bring peace to my soul, and he did. In the background of our call, as I cried, we could hear the joyful summer sound of an ice cream truck.

So many of my friends and family member really showed up for me.

The buddhist lesson for the day was to open my heart to let whatever was happening to me, teach me.

I got it. Walk through the fire.

There are only two emotions; love and fear.

When heartache and devastation comes, accept both.
