Beautiful Tragedy

By Jim Tomforde

A beautiful tragedy has befallen us all. In secret and silence we have suffered. We are mourning yes, but without the skills to know how to feel. To feel is shunned as of low value in our culture. Emotional intelligence is paid lip service but not instilled, refined or understood. May we learn to mourn, and may we learn to feel. Feel without judging the feeling. Feel with acceptance and vulnerability. May we be brave and share our feelings with another for by doing so we free up others to do the same. For pain avoided is sufferings amplified.
