Thanks. As you point out, when we look with the eye of the spirit we can see that all is love. Even the most strident expressions of anger and bitterness are nothing more than confused and covered up cries for love. Thanks, Kevin Bruce, Beautiful. Thanks.

Not from a fiery hell but from a mind that is bound by religious thinking. Thanks for this post Bruce. Peace Geo Did you just try to “save” me?”

It makes me glad when people "get me". Not that I need it really. I'm well settled into this peace. My only hope is that someone will read my out-loud thoughts and find a little piece of peace for themselves. Funny... when I posted this comment on that blog, the only reaction I got was, "What in the world are you talking about? Did you just try to "save" me?" That's OK though, seeds are planted. Sometimes that's all we can do. Thanks for your kind remarks, guys. It makes me glad when people “get me”. Not that I need it really. I’m well settled into this peace.

Give others the same gift of incredible love. Forgive and forget. Love deeply. Because you are loved deeply.' Oooh, yeah! Good stuff. You guys really have to stop publishing such great posts. It makes the rest of our blogs seems pretty pointless! :-) ‘Just as God has judged us as “good”, judge others as good.
