Til at last we’re called home, by someone unknown.
Whose calling card has no address.

Youre right when you said that the world doesnt wait
and regardless of how slowly or quickly we move the
world always seems to pick up its pace and stay those
few steps ahead of us. Time isnt best designed for
forgiving as much as it is for healing. It is our heart,
will, and stubbornness that allows us to forgive
or forevermore hold a grudge.
Through education we think we know which way is
best for us but in the long run we come to realize
that we/'/ve made our decisions not through certainty
but more by guessing.
In regards to your last two lines....I think this
might be the first time that I have to disagree
with you. Beyond our knowing, yes we all get
called home but in the sense of spirituality we
know who calls us home whether we choose to
acknowledge and accept Him or not. Yes the
calling card may not have an address but the
destination is known.
As always though I found this piece brilliantly
written.

Well written. We spend most of our lives fighting life itself instead of living it. Very wise words indeed. |
