We are all broken:
A life made of innumerable pieces, shards of the mosaic…
Walking this living path, with its mile markers of joy and wonder, while journeying through the gauntlet of a thousand strikes to the glass of our souls. Humanity and time demanding a new impression, a newly created shard with each impact of their collective hammer.
A soul divided into immeasurable fragments, seemingly designed to separate us from self, from truth, from each other and from our ascendancy to universal consciousness. Each splinter colored a different hue, none as the others before it.
Seemingly tragic in its destruction, feeling at times like a focused malevolent power, aligned in almost gleeful opposition to the avatar we present to the world and pretend to be in our thoughts. Each shard with a label. Man, woman, rich, poor, educated, sage, sinner and saint.
Calamitous when these shards are perceived from afar and separate from other. But powerful when combined with the mortar of love and universal acceptance. A glorious union, creating a spectacular amalgamation of our true self.
We are all broken. But if courageous enough, we can join the shards of our souls and create a most prepossessing mosaic.
