Vulnerable                September  21

Fear, anxiety, awe, angst, confusion,

that bad feeling that life and love is going to hurt.

“To love at all is to be vulnerable.

Love anything and your heart will be wrung and possibly broken.

If you want to make sure of keeping it intact you must give it to no one,

not even an animal. Wrap it carefully round with hobbies and little luxuries;

avoid all entanglements.

Lock it up safe in the casket or coffin of your selfishness.

But in that casket, safe, dark, motionless, airless, it will change.

It will not be broken; it will become unbreakable, impenetrable, irredeemable.

“To love is to be vulnerable.”   ~ C. S. Lewis

Love is helping someone love themselves.

The Future                             September  20

“As for the future, your task is not to foresee it
but to enable it.” -Antoine de Saint-Exupéry

By loving today, you will build for a better tomorrow.

Loving today includes all the people, places and things

that a loving Higher Power will put into your life,

all of the chances that the Great Creator

will give you to do the next right thing.

If today is good, tomorrow will be better,

because we will spend no time with the

regrets or consequences of not loving

when we had the God given chances.

Love is to enable the future.

Love is helping someone love themselves.
