Solace

'Solace' is about love. It's about finding love in others, it's about accepting that love, and learning to love yourself when that love is no longer there. I re-watched The Good Place recently. The video (on YouTube) is ispired by Chidi's speech to Eleanor at the very end: 'Picture a wave. In the ocean. You can see it, measure it, its height, the way the sunlight refracts when it passes through. And it's there. And you can see it, you know what it is. It's a wave. And then it crashes in the shore and it's gone. But the water is still there. The wave was just a different way for the water to be, for a little while. You know it's one conception of death for Buddhists: the wave returns to the ocean, where it came from and where it's supposed to be.' Love is something similar. You can try to hold on to the wave as much as you want, but sometimes the wave will stop being a wave. It doesn't mean the love is gone – it's just different now. It's okay to miss the wave and give it value. It's okay to want it again. You'll make peace with it all, in the end. We loved each other before the wave and we will love each other after it. Out now.
