I had a hard moment and still trusted the larger truth of my life

Dear Delyara, There was a time when a difficult mood could rewrite everything for me. Now, more often, I can feel the mood and still remember there is a larger truth outside it. A harder hour no longer gets automatic authority over the whole week, the whole self, the whole future. It can be real without becoming total. That shift is one of the most sacred changes in my life. It doesn’t make pain disappear. It makes space survive around it.
