Poetic yet true

Jan 12, 2010 09:45


Your joy is your sorrow unmasked.
And the selfsame well from which your laughter rises
was oftentimes filled with your tears.
And how else can it be?
The deeper that sorrow carves into your being, the more joy you can contain.
Is not the cup that holds your wine the very cup that was burned in the potter's oven?

Kahlil Gibran in The Prophet

i have no idea what happened there. i didn't unfriend you, but my paid account did expire for a little bit, so some things may have been interrupted. I added you back to a friends list.
