Healing ...

 Marius Brossa

"We have been taught to think of 'healing' as the removal of symptoms, the calming of disruption, the numbing of chaos and the return to 'normality'. But sometimes we no longer have any interest in returning to 'normal'. 'Normality' was the prison, not the solution.

Sometimes powerful energies just need to rage in us. Sometimes our hearts need to break wide open, to make room for more love. Sometimes dreams need to die, plans need to crumble, confusion and doubts need to burn, the status quo needs to fall apart. Sometimes all our precious ideas about life, spirituality and even 'enlightenment' need to shatter. 

Sometimes we even need to let go of our time-bound longing to heal.

When we get out of the way, when we stop trying to fix ourselves or get fixed by others, perhaps true healing can really begin - the rediscovery of wholeness, exactly where we stand."
