Life appears to be cyclical when we surpass the idea of finality by way of spirituality or when we allow ourselves to see it as natural phenomenon common to all life. As such, it is a constant force of maturation and rejuvenation. As humans, we can consciously experience these phases as we pass through them. This is a unique gift, an ability not shared by any other species on Earth. It brings with it the potential for love through empathy, but at the same time it also carries the seed for hatred and strife, when we succumb to our fear of finality - death. Humanity is alone in its knowledge of death and as long as we fear it, this can be a great loneliness indeed. However, when we surmount that fear and instead choose to share this collective experience, we learn to embrace life as a constant stream, a coming and going of all that is. One could say that by consciously experiencing the flow of life, one holds the key to embracing all life that is, indeed it may be the beginning of true life.
