The path of grateful acceptance begins with self-negation.
We let go of others to receive more.
We always tend to look at one side, and we fail to look at the other, because we are so engrossed with the idea of enjoying life from the side we are in now, from the side which we often dream of....
But what if we begin to think of the other side, and the challenges of transition that accompanies it.... what if we begin enjoying the other things life can give us....
Where the need to possess ends, the need to give life begins...
Where the need for closeness ends, the challenge to be "always there" begins...
Attachment is both a blessing and a curse: man is destined to stay and remain.... and the whole cadence of "staying" and "letting go" must proceed to give man a stable course.
Where staying ends, the need to go further begins...
Where human fantasies end, the path of contemplation beckons...
Where passion ends, love begins.
Our contemplation of end-beginnings (contrasts) show how life is fleeting, yet at the same time it reflects how life is colorful and beautiful enough.... even if you look at it with gray spectacles.
To every end is a beginning,
to every moment of death is a moment of life,
to every crumpled sheet, is a new one prepared,
to every night, is the dawn of another day,
at the end of every heartbeat, is the beginning of another one.
to every moment of death is a moment of life,
to every crumpled sheet, is a new one prepared,
to every night, is the dawn of another day,
at the end of every heartbeat, is the beginning of another one.
To God, Alpha and Omega, be glory and praise, from our beginnings and ends.. because you are the Lord of time and space, the almighty... Amen.
