Wisdom Wednesdays are usually quotes from others that I’ve found inspiring through the years. However, I just came across some writings of mine written in 1997 and in 1995 that I wanted to share. This is the fifth of those and the second that was written in 1995 before I hemorrhaged:
And in the end
it comes to this:
I love.
No questions, no confusion, no resolution,
simply love.
I don’t need to know why.
I need only
accept
the gift and
tuck it away in my heart
for all time.
I am richer for it
and blessed by it.
I am unwilling to judge it
for the sorrow
I’m feeling now
but instead celebrate it.
I will live well
with the deep satisfaction
of knowing
that I have loved
that I can love
that I do love
and thereby reap the bounty
my heart has willingly sowed.
So simple, yet so profound Jeane! Like Emily Dickinson’s, “That love is all there is, is all we know of love.”, or John Lennon’s, “All we need is love.” The simply truths are the greatest I think. If all our decisions came from a point of love, the world would certainly be a better place. …Kim
Thank you Kim. That certainly puts me in esteemed company! There is a line in the book Tuesdays With Morry that I’ve always held close: “Love wins. Love always wins.” Yes, indeed it does.
Yes…it’s a favourite of mine too…since I read it on your FBook page.
Simply BEAUTIFUL!
Thanks,
