“Of course I’ll hurt you. Of course you’ll hurt me. Of course we will hurt each other. But this is the very condition of existence. To become spring, means accepting the risk of winter. To become presence, means accepting the risk of absence.”

Quote: "Of course I’ll hurt you. Of course you’ll hurt me. Of course we will hurt each other. But this is the very condition of existence. To become spring, means accepting the risk of winter. To become presence, means accepting the risk of absence."
Life is a delicate dance of joy and pain, love and hurt. It is inevitable that we will hurt each other at times, for we are flawed beings navigating a complex world. But in acknowledging this truth, we also embrace the beauty of our existence.
Just as spring cannot exist without the harshness of winter, our growth and transformation often come from facing challenges and overcoming obstacles. The pain we experience can be a catalyst for personal growth and resilience.
When we choose to be present in our relationships and in our own lives, we open ourselves up to vulnerability and the possibility of being hurt. But it is through this vulnerability that we also experience deep connection and intimacy.
To truly be alive is to accept the ebb and flow of emotions, the highs and lows of human experience. It is in these moments of hurt and absence that we learn to appreciate the beauty of love and presence.
By embracing the risk of hurt and absence, we also open ourselves up to the possibility of joy and connection. It is through facing our fears and vulnerabilities that we can truly experience the richness of life.
So let us not shy away from the pain and challenges that come with existence. Let us instead embrace them as part of the tapestry of our lives, knowing that they are essential for our growth and transformation.
May we have the courage to face the winter of our lives, knowing that spring will always follow. May we have the strength to accept the risk of absence, knowing that presence will always find its way back to us.
