my gift

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.

The greatest gift I've ever known is the love that was given from one unknown.
I never saw or touched their face, I never knew their warm embrace.
I found them through shared pain, from grief and loss, thoughts from their heart came.
A secret gift of empathy was given to me, I came to know it was much different than sympathy.
The gift of love helped me believe,
There is much more to life,
And much more to me.

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 another’s 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.
