"Agape=Unconditional Love"

To restore harmony is to bury resentment

To release anger and to live in contentment

To rediscover the tranquility in all that we do

To center ourselves and fly with a Spirit true

To find beauty in the midst of all life's wrongs

To move in living water and refresh sweet songs

To take a crisis and find with in it a lesson learned

To remember that lesson with knowledge earned

To live for each other and send all life your love

Is to experience what it may be like in heaven above

When you can look at someone with eyes that are new

Can you tell someone who needs it a simple I love you."

My definition of: Agape

"Destiny"

"Moving toward a heavenly light

Spreading wings united in flight

Hand in had we know it is true

Souls refreshed in birth so new

In concert we unite with a song

Singing love for an eternity long

Hate will fade into our embraces

Turning frowns into smiling faces

As pastel colors begin to shower

A symphony of our Higher Power

As we stand against an evil force

Our ships sail in peacful course

Now we know not who we are

Soon we will all be a shining star"

"The Flavor of Life"

"The flavor of life is in the love that you share. The mystery of this is what you experience. Remember what you send out you will receive many times fold. So spread your love with tenderness and understanding. Make a difference in someone's life. You never know what will happen as a result of your actions. You just might save a life!"

Of Intelligence and Wisdom

Intelligence is not measured by the vast vocabulary you use. It is not evident in sentence structure or paragraphs utilized. It isn't even noted in the lofty way in which you expound. Intelligence can't even be found in our chosen vocations or avocations.

Intelligence is demonstrated in the way you exercise the measure of wisdom you have been given. Are you humble or arrogant in the way you impact the world around you? Do you respond in love and compassion to those less informed or react in haste with sharp biting words? Remember, "slow to anger but swift to forgive."

The next time we are given an opportunity to show what we have learned, let us all be very careful and empathetic to the people we are attempting to minister to. They may not be at our same levels and are actually "Devine Appointments" sent to us to receive what we have for them. Intelligence and Wisdom are gifts earned and are to be spent in good stewardship of what the Powers That Be have blessed us with.

We are all given opportunities everyday to be "Angels" in someone elses lives. May our "Light" illuminate the paths of others and not blind them into oblivion. Shall we spread our wings in Universal Consciousness and envelope the world with love and harmony?

I am guilty of transgressing my own words, yes. But we also must be aware that humans are frail and prone to hasty and thoughtless actions. I strive to work on my flaws. We are all diamonds, in my humble opinion, constantly being cut by the Great Jeweler. We will never be flawless. However we can be in constant motion toward the calling of our individual purposes and missions.

To be deemed worthy of being called intelligent and wise sometimes...
