It’s two for one day! “The Present”
Musings On The Finite Statist Machine
birthday of an angel and we are getting the present! My first born son, who is older and oh so
much wiser than I was when he was born, has written a love letter to the
world.
this and send some of your own love light “down under”. He would like that.
after midnight, i’m 28 now, and i love you. i don’t care who you are. i don’t
care what your name is, what you look like, where you live, or what you’ve done
with your life so far. i love you because it’s a choice, because it’s my
god-given right to do so, because it’s up to me to decide to exercise the power
of my heart, or not.
i love you because i choose to. not because i know you, not because i think
you’re great, not because i think i’m great, but because we’re all in this
together. we are not separate. humanity’s repetitive cycle of self-inflicted
pain is not happening to someone else, it is happening to all of us, right now.
i love you because i choose to, because i know that once enough of us make that
choice, the cycle will be broken. that’s all it takes. you do not have to be
special, or amazing, because you are special, and amazing. you do not have to
have money, or do something else first. all we have to do is embrace the
ever-ready always-accessible omnipotent strength living within us, and, from
there, embrace the world. love. choose to love. be nice, be kind, be gentle.
help each other, ask how we’re doing, find ways to make today nicer than
yesterday.
i love you because i choose to, because i know that once enough of us make that
choice, the cycle will be broken, because that’s how it works. love bursts all
confines which would constrain it, love nourishes every starving soul suckled
at it’s breast, love restores faith to every weary person beaten down by the
pain of separation. this is what love does, this is how it works, and this is
how our world will evolve. along the path of love lies the true journey of
human evolution – we do not evolve with gadgets, or with money. we do not
evolve with undersea explorations, outerspace sojourns, or genetic tinkering.
we do not evolve through sport, or music, or art, not through poetry, dance,
meditation, or metaphysics. each of these, insomuch as they are a conduit for
the creative expression of love, may serve as an avenue for our evolution but
the mold is not the essence, the waterjug is not the water, and an empty glass
will not quench our thirst. it is love which imbues anything and everything
with sacred potency, love which invests life itself with meaning.
i love you because i choose to, because i know that once enough of us make that
choice, the cycle will be broken, because that’s how it works. i love you
because we have spent enough time investigating what does not work, and we are
ready now to move on to what does.
i love you because i have spent enough time investigating what does not work,
and i am ready, now, to move on to what does. come with me.
happy birthday, love.
