Sorrow is a function of the microcosm perceiving separation. Joy is a function of the macrocosm perceiving unity.

Destruction is the act of creation, for when 'what is' is destroyed, the new creation rushes in. It is not an act of will but surrender which brings about one's will. The paradox must be accepted.

You are not part of the One. You are the One. Playing, witnessing, and forgetting a part of itself.
