Funny human qualities - honesty, integrity and honor. Much us said about it; so few master it, in fact lie to themselves about it….ego edges all out including God. Yet we lie, cheat and betray ones we love most dearly. Yet- love costs not a penny, kind words, deeds, compassion cost not even a brass farthing, …yet we squander it away ever so easily without a fleeting thought. Then, sadly as time passes by....it becomes crystal clear the feeling of deep loss of the treasure we have let us slip by. When we have lost, that we have valued the most, then we realize within our heart of what a blessed grace we were given, yet we have allowed to slip though our hands; love –like water we allow to trickle though our fingers …..never to return- sadly this we do being fully aware of our deed, this act of pride becomes the very sword we fall upon.
Later, we look back teary eyed, dejected, feeling sorry for our selves-totally lost. Filled with regret, pain and wonder why we are
so punished by fate, by life and we blame God. The truth is that we punish our very selves for not seeing the
beauty of love, of being loved, being valued and cared for without restrictions, without
wanting anything in return-and at the time we throw it away with full consciousness.
Value love for often there are seldom
second chances. For when it comes time that we are all stripped to bare bones
before the divine and facing eternity, we will understand that the only law we
were meant to follow, was to love ourselves and each other fully, without restrictions. Nothing more, nothing less. Often this realization comes far too late with tremendous pain.
