And then I realized, more fully, how powerful these things are. Love and life and time are of their own force, they have their own source of energy, we neither control that source, nor its use. All we can do is respect it and let it happen as it does. Those are the mysteries of our existence, to enjoy life is to stand in their presence and wonder and marvel at them as they happen, to stand in the face of life, love, and time and be part of it, in all its emotion. It takes very little work to simply allow it to be, but somehow we have notions of how it should be and that makes us work too hard.
