Even after all this time The Sun never says to the Earth "You owe me"
Look what happens With a love like that It lights The Whole Sky...

Wow, how simple and beautiful. The sun, so generous with it's energy and light, expects nothing in return, a reminder of unconditional love. I admire that relationship. The sun's relationship of the earth is a reminder to the love that involves giving without expecting someone to owe you in return. What a great reminder! I will be reminded of this when I am outdoors enjoying the sun. Imagine a world where people freely give without expecting anything in return.
How did the rose Ever open its heart And give to this world All its beauty?
It felt the Encouragement of light Against its being.
Otherwise, We all remain Too frightened.

About The Encouragement of Light
I started this blog in March 2008, days after an auto accident that killed my 9 month old son (Sage) and my dad (Dennie) and left me with serious injuries, including a broken pelvis. I write to share my exploration of life after losing my child and to process this experience. My husband, Michael, and I find ourselves in the foreign land of grief, sometimes utterly lost, and sometimes awed by unexpected beauty.
