Birth Pains
146 days
by Chris D
in Littleservices
“This Birth was / Hard and bitter agony for us, like Death, our death.” T.S. Eliot, Journey of the Magi.
Just as the birth of Jesus disrupted the old order for the Magi, and meant the death of their old lives, so too the sign of transformation in us is often “hard and bitter agony”. So it may be that your present suffering is the handmaiden of some new and better way of being.
