When the Gift of Giving Has Gone

Have you longed to give your heart just for the sake of giving? Withheld for years, for pain and tears spark fear that steals from living a full, enriched, and glorious life where joy outweighs the sorrow ~ one in which one yearns to live, believing in tomorrow. And if you thought to finally give what’s ached to be set free, to make a change, jumpstart your heart, within a moment be everything you hoped for but could never quite conceive; then, once again, encountered thieves who lie, cheat, and deceive... Would you then quit, throw in the towel, no more to fight again; or hold on tight, steadfast, and strong and pray that love will win? Engaging in a battle as such may introduce defeat, but walk away and casualties will knock you off your feet. Consider this, if it is true that earth is heaven’s floor, then love should rule ~ a truth transcribed upon each person’s core. Could we succeed in loving self as much as we love others, we just might heal and bear the strength to stand aside our brothers. Then, we could all give from the heart with kindness and compassion for fear will lose all reasoning when love becomes the fashion.
