The purpose of life on earth
Is to love,
Give,
And serve.
For some reason,
Offenses happen
Often,
Hush words are spoken
Without careful consideration.
Resentments become roadblocks
in communication.
Pardon must be given,
Anger must be renounced
In order for peace, love, and humanity
To be granted by Heaven.
To love
Is to forgive
Not receive!
It’s hard to love one’s enemy,
But,
The pain is NOT lessened
When hatred faces hatred.
Love obliterate
And eliminate.
Love is light,
Love is sunshine.
To love others
Is to love yourselves.
With love as the prescription
For everything,
Life is lighter,
Your smile is brighter.
