--Czeslaw Milosz
Difficult indeed, but this is what eases and mitigates the pain of exile. That you are not confined to nor contained by it - there is always enough space for surprises, changes, transformations.

songs of exile (2)
'The purpose of poetry is to remind us how difficult it is to remain just one person. Our home is open, there are no keys in the doors, visible ghosts come in and out at will'.
Difficult indeed, but this is what eases and mitigates the pain of exile. That you are not confined to nor contained by it - there is always enough space for surprises, changes, transformations.
