The Day the Ego made Peace with God

Someone shared an image at the spiritual networks that showed thousands of words lined up next to each other. It had expressions like fear, lust, pain, must, competition, guilt and so forth. But all of these words were blurred; it was as if someone looked at all these expressions through a distorted lens; the only word that was fully visible was in color and was right in the center: love.

That's what life is all about, a magnificent obsession to fall in love with what is while burning your passion on something that is important to you. Never mind if you are all-to human, and never mind if you still carry karma from the past. You might sexually lust after someone who may turn out to be your soul-partner; your love of power can be transformed into a love for your co-workers and the mission of your business. Your love for money can be transformed into a desire to found and fund charities.

No matter what the calling of your ego might be, God is always standing right next to you, ready to give you a new perspective that helps you realize that true love is what you are after. It is as if a divine lens lets you zoom right into the center of your priorities, true love. There is only one requirement, you have to connect with the Way and let Her do Her thing. Once you have held Her hand, once you have tasted true love, nothing artificial can ever again cast a spell over you.
