Tip of the iceberg

I've recently realized that some relationships are like an iceberg.
And I don't mean cold as an iceberg, but rather deep.

You see the tip of the iceberg, that surface side of the relationship, where everything is visible and bright, sparkling and joyful. You enjoy the visible, manifested side of it, through communication, sharing thoughts, feelings, music, movies, books, ideas, opinions...kisses and touchings.

And then, one days, all this stops.
And you feel sad because you think you lost something beautiful and so intense. And you are forced (?) to leave the iceberg and to take distance. However, you feel still connected, deep inside, you still feel that there is something more than this. You can feel it, but you cannot see it, and you start wondering if you lost your minds or what ?!

And while you are taking the distance, vertically or horizontally, at some point you turn and see the iceberg on its holy wholeness: the visible lighted tip...and also the hidden body of it, emerged into the deep blue waters of the ocean.
And that moment is a pure moment of bliss...and you realize that the ocean is nothing but yourself, your inner self (part of the universal Self) where the iceberg came from the first place...and where it majestically submerges and floats now...and where it will silently melt later.
