The Water of Realization

I wrote in June of our trip to Florida, four sisters, united in our commitment to move Mom to a more comfortable and secure residence, nearer to family, grandchildren and all. 
 

It was a success! She loves her new place while still missing her home in the South. 
 

We were the four great women that we truly are.
 

Love’s transmutation capacity elevates all other concerns.

Again from Rumi:

 

“Love says: You can deny me. Try.
I say, Yes, you appear out of nowhere
like the bubbles in wine, here and then not.
 

… The water of realization is the wine we mean …
Grace floods in. The wine’s power breaks the jar. …”
