Po — Spirit of the Metal Element

I have always had a soft spot for cinema and the pandemic played into that quite well for me. After awile, I started to think that I was embroiled in some fiendish plot that was meant to keep me posted on my couch and with the advances in streaming technologies the plot has unrolled seamlessly. One positive attribute of said plot has been the expression of my personal grief has been strengthened.

The ability to let go of your attachments lies at the center of the Po’s wisdom. A common expression of letting go is the sigh; sighing is nothing more than a deep, audible release while breathing out. The Po is the Spirit of the Metal Element; the home of the Lungs (breathing) and Large Intestine. Watching Jonah Hill and Emma Stone in the series Manic had my tears gushing before I even knew what was happening.

It’s been a long pandemic with many Kleenex tissue boxes, and the revelations have kept slowly and gently appearing. I don’t want to give away the ending because the shows not over yet.

There’s always time for a good cry as we let go.
