"The wound is the place where the Light enters you." – RumiIn this essay, I reflect on the heartbreak that shattered me and became a profound initiation—what I now understand as a sacred wound. Through the lens of myth, poetry, psychology, and personal story, I explore how grief, when fully embraced, can become a teacher, a threshold, and even a source of creative power. I weave my own experience of devastating loss with the stories of Orpheus, Chiron, Rumi, Tristan and Isolde, and others who were shaped by wounds they never fully healed from. Rather than trying to “get over” the pain, I chose to sanctify it—to treat it as a passage into deeper love, art, and soul. This essay is both a mourning song and a love letter to those who carry their own sacred wounds, and an offering of hope that our suffering, if honored, can become the very source of our genius.
