Has the thirst and fire lying within your spirit reached a point of alchemy where they have joined together to search out ways to quench and douse the flames? Have the common threads that pull us closer into our sorrow been woven so tightly, or can they be untied? Has dukkha—suffering—been the precursor and the theme to our stories?
