a couple of years ago
when my ways of understanding
the world
and my existence within it
began to crumble and change,
i asked a friend
that i respected so greatly
and trusted so deeply
why...
why does it matter?
why does Easter matter?
she paused.
she held my question.
even the contempt and skepticism
in my voice.
she held them gently.
"because"
she responded calmingly.
"because it reminds us that
love always wins."
always? i asked.
"yes. love always wins."
perhaps you are unpacking
just what exactly this day means
to you
to the world
to the course of human history.
perhaps you are, like me
still wondering and unpacking
just exactly
what that could mean...
regardless, may i just share this?
yesterday,
i stopped and took a moment
to bid the sun a nice goodbye,
and the last raze's of sun
whispered to me...
reminding of those words
from my friend:
"always.
always.
always.
love wins."
love wins.
happy easter friends.
