132. The Hopeless but Real Question that Lingered after a Year of Loss.

Elephant Journal: Walk the Talk Show with Waylon Lewis - A podcast by Waylon H. Lewis

Walk the Talk Show with Waylon Lewis presents: Mindful Mondays, with Waylon Lewis. I had a lot of loss last year and a lot of grief, and I think some depression and some giving up. And in my recent, first Ayahuasca ceremony, after those hours of crying and crying and love and crying and crying, I was left with a question that wasn’t hopeful—but it was real. And that question was, why love again? Why would I open my heart up again when I’ve lost so much? When we love, we risk losing. Don’t we learn from abuse, not to go back for more? Why shouldn’t we learn from love lost? Then, suddenly, I found a way forward.
