This truly takes my breath away. I feel the immediacy of this powerful, numinous event, and am reminded of the great paradox that life can hold such great pain and such boundless grace, in the very same moment. And more, it is a potent reminder that even pain that seems endless, will end, while the unimaginable love that we are held in is eternal.

The longer I live, the more I think that this is one of our most common experiences: having the parents we needed for our soul's growth, not the parents we thought we wanted. Painful, familiar, ultimately liberating.

It is so painful to read this poem and to picture a perfect, beautiful, little boy, shattered and alone. And yet, as the poem acknowledges, that shattering is often exactly what opens our hearts to the humanity and suffering of others; that schools us in the importance of seeing and speaking only what is most true.
