An Essential Existential Fact

We are programmed perfectly at birth

To respond to love

It seems we lose this as we age

Taught a philosophy of

Competition, sickness, finite resources, and death

That money, grades, and what you do

Is more important then love

Spiritual growth is found in the relinquishment of

Fear

The acceptance of

Love

For it is the essential existential fact.

Fear is the lack

of love

The latter is an intuitive knowing inside one’s heart

A miracle is just a shift that starts

With perspective

Surrender through spirituality is passive

But it is not weak!

Love will bring peace

Into your life

Thought is cause

Experience is effect

Guard and protect your thoughts

Because what we consume in our minds

Can eat us up inside

We need love

The way we need oxygen.
