Life Equations #33

David Whyte is one of my favorite poets and has a poem called “Still Possible” that I read recently which has these lovely lines:

“It’s still possible to fully understand

you have always been the place

where the miracle has happened:

that you have been since your birth,

the bread given and the wine lifted,

the change witnessed and the change itself,

that you have secretly been, all along,

a goodness that can continue

to be a goodness to itself.

It’s still possible in the end

to realize why you are here

and why you have endured.”

Our 33rd Life Equation is Possible = Still.
