All the pains

The first thing we have to do is
to embrace all the pains in our lives.
This is the only way
to deal with them.
Because when you embrace the pain,
there
is no limit any more.

This is what your arms are for.
In everyone’s arms
fits another human being.
And you can also embrace yourself:
when you embrace somebody
you embrace yourself.
When you don’t understand someone,
when you don’t feel beloved,
go to your mother,
your father
and embrace them.
