One Life to Live?
What if we only have one life to live? What if we have infinite
life-times? Eternity is all-inclusive, so I figure I will be (or I
am) a part of Eternity. If it is just this one life, would I behave
differently with each day? If there is another life after this (the
Afterlife); how does this life affect it? I believe there are
spiritual laws; you get what you give, compassion &
forgiveness heals, or even the unique nature of the present
moment. Some say life is a test; others say life is a game. For
myself, I often step back & apply what intuitively feels like the
right thing to do with the thoughts I receive & the emotions I
feel. For myself, it draws a line in the sand, pointing to the
importance & preciousness of life. All I can do is take each
moment at a time & be as sincerely honest with myself as
possible. I have glimpses of my past through memories, & of
course I realize what is happening now. I believe I will reap
what I sow, & I want that to be the harvest of a good quality of
life based on Love as it says in 1st Corinthians 13:4-7. “Love is
patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not
proud. It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not
easily angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not
delight in evil but rejoices with the truth. It always protects,
always trusts, always hopes, always perseveres.”
