Life
is a gift. a gift is always a surprise. Loving the gift given
you is also living your life with such love that others can
share in the gift.
Some
packages are dressed so beautifully they are never opened, others
may appear plain but hold great treasure. What ever your life
is wrapped in has little meaning, what is inside is the treasure.
A person
is wrapped in a very human form, but the soul of that person
is the treasure the true gift. Leaving your wrappings behind
when your life is over, does not remove the love and soul from
the world. Each person deserves to be remembered for the love
they have given in their life.
Have you ever
taken a moment and pondered the value of your life?
Have you ever
wondered how your daily meetings and greetings effect others?
Imagine an
angel of Light appears before you and She ever so gently says.
. . stop . . . and think. Is the world a better place with you?
What value do you see your life adding to the energies of the
planet?
Looking back
on what some may consider a mundane life, they may well be surprised
and pleased to see how their life effects others.
You truly
have no idea exactly how valuable and necessary your life is!
You touch everyone you meet . . . in the gentle ways you smile
at others, to bring them back to remembering there is kindness
about them, in their Hectic lives. Even in the way you hold
doors open for others your gesture shows them they are not invisible
to the world . . . and have worth.
You never
know what you do that you take for granted, that may save the
lives of others. Letting others glide into traffic ahead of
you averts accidents and saves lives. Reporting people who sell
drugs saves lives, as much as removing a broken piece of glass
off a beach or a play ground. Have you ever stood by a lost
child and comforted them until their parent showed up?
Have you taught
anyone to swim? It may have saved their life later or who knows
given them the strength to save anothers life?
Have you shown
Love to a battered child, giving them an example of a Healthy
adult? They, in turn, grew to nourish and not batter their own
family?
There are
gentle things you do daily, things you do so naturally, that
you have no idea how you are positively effecting others
lives.
And to the
question how valuable is your life? We say, Your cheeks
would blush as person after person stepped into line and gave
you thanks for having touched their lives.
You are a
valuable and precious treasure. Amen.
