Nature recycles
Changing matter never stops
Just like you and me
Even solid rock
crumbles… flakes away in time
Just like you and me

Yes, so true! All the more reason to find lightness when and where we can. Not to deny the pain and the dark…. which we have to go through. But to help us have moments of light as we keep putting one foot in front of the other.
