[Ran-Taro]

"Everything that has a beggining, has an end"

Sorry to quote a movie trailer, but it's a meaningful truism for me.

Or, another way to think about it - does a raindrop only have meaning while it is falling?

Or does it return to being part of a greater meaning when absorbed back into the earth?

For a fleeting moment it seems to have the freedom of it's own form, but really it is always a part of greater whole. We too are like this.

You can accept the reality of the illusion, or you can despair and waste it.

I believe joy has meaning, even though it ends.
