A Blessing for the Brokenhearted 
Let us agreefor nowthat we will not saythe breakingmakes us strongeror that it is betterto have this painthan to have donewithout this love.Let us promisewe will nottell ourselvestime will healthe woundwhen every dayour wakingopens it anew.Perhaps for nowit can be enoughto simply marvelat the mysteryof how a heartso brokencan go on beating,as if it were madefor precisely this—as if it knowsthe only cure for loveis more of itas if it seesthe heart’s sole remedyfor breakingis to love stillas if it truststhat its own stubbornand persistent pulseis the rhythmof a blessingwe cannotbegin to fathombut will save usnonetheless.
