Grief can be the garden of compassion. If you keep your heart open through everything, your pain can become your greatest ally in your life's search for love and wisdom.

Heartsick, heartbroken—To know love is to know pain.What could be more common?Even so, each broken heart is so singularThat with it we probe the divine.

Heartsick, heartbroken—
To know love is to know pain.
What could be more common?
Even so, each broken heart is so singular
That with it we probe the divine.

Through Love all that is bitter will be sweet, Through Love all that is copper will be gold, Through Love all dregs will become wine, through Love all pain will turn to medicine.

Keep love in your heart. A life without it is like a sunless garden when the flowers are dead.

To ease a grieving heart is the world's greatest pleasure, more so, when the heart is yours.
