Grief is the feet and joy the head;
both are part of the same entity.
You cannot welcome joy and
reject grief at the same time.
You cannot have the obverse
without the reverse.
The diamond is at first
just a dull piece of stone, a hard pebble.
Only when it is cut by a skilled artisan
does it shine brilliantly like a flame.
Allow yourselves to be treated
by the Master so that all your
dullness will disappear and you will
emerge effulgent as a resplendent diamond.
