When I was caved in, enshrouded in misery, and wallowing in self pity, it was love that intervened. Love that knocked furiously, and at other times gently at the door of my heart and rocked the sanctuary of my mind.
"To be right or to be kind?"
"To win the battle and lose the war?"
"To live in the past or build a better future?"
"To cut loss and retreat or insist on return?"
"To spare or take them on?"
"An eye for an eye or be gracious and merciful?"
Love says to let go.
Free your spirit.
Free his spirit. Free their spirit.
Let him go. Let them go.
The score is settled. For you at least. You've seen the light. The destroyer - the joy stealer - brings only division, darkness and devastation. Move to a higher level. That way, the view is better to see the big picture. In willing submission put down your defenses.
Let them have their way... their need is greater.
Of course in reality everything remain the same. The change is only in your mind but that's already sufficient.
Enough to put matters in the proper perspective.
Everyone has to deal with his own demons of jealousy, envy, anger, strife, greed and others. They will have theirs to contend with.
You've dealt with yours. Keep going.
Exorcism is a daily process.
Victory is not when you can control or lord it over another person. That is quite simple with the use or rather misuse of power, money, muscle and authority.
True victory is when you can control you. When you can look at and live in total peace, harmony and synchronicity with the man in the mirror. That is when you're truly one up on the other.
Love can put things. Too much drama in the theatre of the mind opens too many options. Love throws them all out; the confusion, chaos and conflicts. Love functions best when you are a willing partner.
Yes, it was love that came to my rescue; raised my sinking heart, calm my raging spirit and stilled my despairing cry.
So long as I allow love to reign, I win...
