We all get caught up with things that are going on in our
immediate environment, sometimes it's hard to imagine what's
going on somewhere else in the world.
- While you are eating; somewhere, someone is hungry.
- As you are laughing; somewhere, someone is shedding a tear.
- While you are holding your newborn; somewhere, someone is dying.
- As you are reciting your vows; somewhere, someone's heart is
- being broken.
- When you were out dancing; somewhere, someone is learning how to walk all over again.
- While you are singing; somewhere, someone is praying for their voice to be heard.
Life has its ups and downs. You are not guaranteed a great
time every moment of every day. You learn to grab and hold
on to those moments that make you smile and your heart feel
good. You have to experience the bad things so that you can
appreciate the good things, you have to have something to
compare the good times to. Just as you know what it's like
to be surrounded by loving people, you also know what it
feels like to be alone, but you don't want to be lonely.
To me we are not all different, we are all the same.
We just haven'trealized it yet, that will take generations to come. There is no good or bad, just what our perception of it is, and
that perception varies from one generation to the next.
For those who have a hardened heart, while you wallow in
anger and spend your precious time and energy seeking ways
to seek revenge; someone somewhere is wrapping their loving
arms around a baby struggling to breathe. You can either
carry on old ways, or look at this baby, (a new life, a new
breath), and see it as hope for a new generation that knows
no anger, that knows only love; and you can teach it how to
give and receive. The gift you give yourself is prosperity
which is produced from love.
Just as you experience both good and bad events in your
life, you also have choices to do good and bad things. Your
heart is either pure; to help mankind make a better world
for the next generation, or your heart has been hardened by
past events and you cannot see outside of your own hatred
and despair. Only you know the difference, and only you can
change things.
Give love and hope, not hate and despair.
Which would you want your child to know?
