A long time ago I thought that love was something that you reserved for some special set of people that you had judged worthy of it.

After a while I got to thinking about what Jesus had said about turning the other cheek and loving our neighbor I put the two together and realized that he had made no exceptions in these statements. It became obvious to me that he intended that we exclude no one from the love that we are supposed to be giving. I started thinking about my idea of love and suddenly realized that I had not been loving anyone at all. I had simply been judging everyone and every thing.

Judging someone worthy of love is not love, it is only judgment. I actually started to cry when I realized this. I saw just how much of my life I had wasted being judgmental, thinking of myself as a Christian, when I was actually doing just the opposite of what Jesus had asked us to do.

I thought about the verse judge not lest ye be judged, and I understood it for the first time.

I realized that I have a lot of catching up to do. So many opportunities were wasted. I now try to apply the love that I have for the world in a universal way like Jesus asks us to do.

If I start to feel afraid and think that I see someone that I should not love because of something I have thought or heard I try to catch my mistake as soon as possible. I tell myself that I have forgot the truth and have fallen for the same old trick that had cost me so many opportunities to be loving in the past. The horror of this realization is often all that is necessary to bring me back to my senses and make me drop the judgmental nonsense I was thinking.

I still have a lot to learn about love, but at least I’m making progress.

Love and blessings

My wish and desires are to go to Egypt. To meet Dr. Zahi Hawass, to tour the Egyptian Museum of Antiquities. To stand before the red pyramid and sphinx, to float down the river Nile, to see the Valley Of The Kings, go to the city of Ramses The Great and To work with an archeology team. Sadly, it is too dangerous to go to Egypt. But Egypt has always called me and fascinated me. At my age 55 I'm a little long in the tooth to be out in the baking heat and sand, but I would go in a heart beat if it were possible.

To have good, honest and open relationships with the people in my life and a better connection with nature and the source of all being. To help make the world a better place. To be happy enough that worldly possessions matter little to me.
In essence, to be in tune.

I want to be a writer. I am determined to do so. It isn't easy; I did NaNoWriMo last year and only got 10,000 words done--I'm still working on that book. But--"Lord willin' and the creek don't rise"--I will finish it someday.
