Have you given up?

In the destruction

They will it not for Peace

In the sorrow

They will it not for Joy

In the hatred

They will it not for Love

In their death

They will their Life

Peace and Joy and Love of life quickly pass away as though they were nothing more than a taste of better days for the troubled mind. To the heart that rejoices in its wondrous divine place of creation, there is abundance everlasting for ALL of peace, love and joy.

A man experiences times of destruction yes, many, but as the days go by of sorrow so too is peace abiding with him. For his mind knows not the peace that is above all understanding of destruction. Peace would not come in times of peace for peace already IS. So look within peace and allow destruction to be without you.

Life is not awakened on the earth but rather in the hearts of those who desire life from within. The journey to the death of a man is counted by his footsteps but the journey to life exceeds the footsteps of our time here. So we must look inward for the truth.

All you have desired to give that the world shows you not

Lives within you

….and therefore when I pass by a broken tree

I see its Life

Trees live and trees die but Life itself can be seen at any moment.
