Biran

Biran is a Buddhist term meaning a cosmic storm that occurs in the moment before cosmic order shifts. It is a force of recovery, spontaneously manifesting itself to restore order. The storm can be powerful and violent. Yet, at the same time it is one that heals through cleansing and purification.

I recently celebrated 21 years of sobriety and each year at this time, I reflect on where I've been and how far I've come and Biran covers it nicely. Although, it's also tempting to refer to Pinky and the Biran and I know I should refrain but I won't.
