We are so loved,
we are given free will.
Do you realise the enormity of this?
It is called "unconditional love."

This also includes our ability, to "think freely",
otherwise it would not be so.

Humankind, in turn, has countless ways of distorting & using "God" for our own ego-driven purposes.

And still amid the chaos we create,
there is much beauty,
if you seek to search
through all the rubble to find it...
it is here.

May you find within yourself freedom from judgement,
or can you truly cast the first stone?

Sometimes, amid one's own pain,
it is easier to blame another
than to recognise one's own part in it all,
or one's lack of action in it all....
...to have the courage to choose
to set an example by one's own life,
to help others.

May you let go of your obvious distress & pain,
because underneath you clearly have a heart overflowing with love, empathy & compassion -
this is what is valuable & beautiful now.

Your great ability to love, use it!

Follow only what is true in your heart -
be true to yourself -
live your life -
it is a journey in
how to love yourself -
& then how to extend that love to others -
& how to count everything as a lesson & a blessing -
even if it shows you how not to be.

That is all you ever need to do.

I say it this as one on a journey,
I am in awe of how to describe,
but love is the point of it all.

Faith.

"God is real, like it or not." - Carl Jung
