Birth is Not the Beginning

The rock did not birth the brook

“Everything turns in circles and spirals with the cosmic heart until infinity. Everything has a vibration that spirals inward or outward — and everything turns together in the same direction at the same time. This vibration keeps going: it becomes born and expands or closes and destructs — only to repeat the cycle again in opposite current. Like a lotus, it opens or closes, dies and is born again. Such is also the story of the sun and moon, of me and you. Nothing truly dies. All energy simply transforms.” ― Suzy Kassem

Unrestrained, life strolls through the open doors of birth and death, again undetained by these doorposts and continues its merry trip,

unrecognized by those who claim its counterpoint is death.

No, it is not — Birth is not the beginning, death is not the end; those are midwives.

The rock did not birth the brook, the ocean cannot claim the river.

In the circular race of the underground water and the rain, the river travels to visit the sea on its way to the never-ending trip.
