The entire law is summed up in a single command, Love your neighbor as yourself.

Saint Paul

Wow!  That is a biggy, isn't it? 

You know by now what I believe right?

I believe  all the problems in this world are related to not loving our neighbour enough.  The reason we do not love our neighbours is we do not love ourselves enough...and the reason for that is that we have forgotten what Love truly is? We have forgotten who we really are and from where we came.

In our amnesia we fabricated a world that we needed to protect ourselves in...a fearful world, a shameful world.  In our self protection we have built borders and defenses.  To rationalize our building of these defenses we expanded on the notion that the world really was a place to fear.  We have learned to collect, cling, hold onto, accumulate,  and protect "our things"  from "them" or "it"rather than give.  We have learned to fear, defend, and  protect self through attack rather than love.

Hmm!  We need to get back to what Christ taught...what was taught from the beginning...Love.

All is well in my world.
