If you want to milk life, you need to embrace everything that grief brings you. And in grief youre going to meet hate, anger, emotional pain, rage, terror, feeling torn to pieces, feeling crazy, you might end up in a total emotional abyss. Youre probably very likely to end up in an emotional abyss. You need to feel that emotional abyss. You need to let that abyss swallow you. So you can see why I dont get invited to parties very much. You may feel that in that abyss a part of you is dying. Maybe a part of you needs to die. Close off your experience of the abyss and you close off the flow of life. Because heres the thing. Block anger and youll block your vitality. Block that fear and youll block your excitement. Block that deep emotional pain and youll block your access to compassion. Even block your hatred and youll block your access to peace. Block your experience of that abyss, and you will block access to the depths of who you really are and the energy thats going to take you forward. Right in the centre of that abyss, in that silence, youll find your liberation, even if youve lost the love of your life. We do that not to get away from whats hurting us, or to move away from whats making us unhappy, we embrace all those emotions to connect to the flow of life. This is what will ultimately make us happy. Happiness, for the people I came across in my journey, was about the way they travelled. It wasnt some end destination, some place they reached when theyd got over grief. It was about how they continued to be open to their experience. - Doctor Geoff Warburton
