It has been a long winter in more ways than weather-wise, but with Easter comes the season of hope. Whatever your faith, or lack of it, the return of the flowers and blossoms surely gives you an understanding that nothing in our universe dies and is gone forever. Everything renews itself, but often in a different form.
We may differ in how we express our faith, but the order of the universe connects us all to one another in a commonality of man. Christian, Muslim, Jewish, Hindu, Buddhist, etc. etc……..we are all connected by this order. No one faith is totally right, making another one totally wrong. My ideas of right and wrong may differ from yours, but as long as I bring no harm to another life, my differences will not weaken or destroy yours. I wish we could all just live and let live. If everyone followed The Golden Rule, it would mean the end of hatred and war.
Tomorrow, as we celebrate this holiday with family and friends, let’s be loving and kind and respectful in our disagreements. Let’s celebrate the goodness that is in each one of us. ENJOY, ENJOY. These moments with family and friends all pass. Nothing is eternal, except what we carry in our hearts.
That goes for the Tea Party people and their message of hatred and fear. I heard about a new group centered around coffee klatches. Their motto is civility as they discuss their differences. Hooray! That’s a group I’d be interested in joining. Why not start one in your home town?
