@sunyata tough choice. raindrops feel cleansing, but hailstorm seems like possibility of growth.

@wordingway

At first I wanted to disagree with you, thinking growth in the wake of destruction would only apply to ecosystems, not the mind. But I felt there might be some truth to it so I contemplated it for a couple of days.

I think you are right. Hitting the floor so hard that you can't ignore that you need to grow is a thing. And the more you pay attention the smaller the impact needs to be. Which is what ultimately lead me to write that pair of senryu.

Thank you for that insight.

@sunyata art is amazing with how it evokes different emotions in us all. this is always a personal choice and path. the answer was right for me and definitely a perspective that forever ebbs and flows depending on the experience. i am happy it resonated. sorry for the late reply.
