Heartache is good. Accept it
joyously. Allow it, don’t repress it. The natural
tendency of the mind is to repress anything that is painful. By
repressing it you will destroy something that is growing. The
heart is meant to be broken. Its purpose is to melt into tears
and and evaporate. When the heart has evaporated exactly in the
same place where the heart was, you come to know the deeper
heart.
Your love has passed through me and now I feel my mind
something like an opal, that is, full of strange uncertain hues
and colours, of warm lights and quick shadows and of broken
music.
