Occurs like a corkscrew.
With each turn of the key,
we press down further
into the cork,
piercing down through
a new layer that may
seem to have been
visited before.
Grief closes what
gratitude opens.
This is how I view healing the layers of suffering. In some ways it is the same thing, yet it is a new layer that is being seen, felt and healed. Gratitude for the new awareness is a lovely catalyst for the healing. Sometimes it can feel like we’re saying, “thank you, may I have another?” Once the cork is removed, we breathe freely again.
Thank you Mary Cathleen Clark for your support!

And we start to become resilient to pain.

And we also recognize old, destructive thinking patterns for what they are, are better able to remind ourselves, and are able to then change their course! Loved this.

I do know that it feels like a corkscrew and you are only exposed to new painful healing once the previous layer is cleared – I am with you there. Is it really possible for the cork to be removed – will we really drink the wine again T?

I have read this like ten times. I was going to say that you last line was my favorite, however it it all so true. A corkscrew, wow, piercing! I am learning to be more humble, to really hear what she is saying, it is so hard at times, but I want us, JoMell and I, to heal together. Hmmmm, might be a poem in there, pardon me while I take some notes 😊Ken

Yes, it can be hard to listen. The silent spaces are the hardest part to really hear! ❤️
