Although we may not be able to understand all the workings of this universe,

all the sorrowful manifestations that arise in our experience,

at least we can love

each & every thing

that moves into our presence,

each & every thing

that knocks at the door of our perception--

loving all,

meeting all with patience & openness,

&, most importantly,

letting hate melt into forgiveness--

at least this--

this is glorious.
