worthy?


Our job is to love others without stopping to inquire whether or not they are worthy. That is not our business and, in fact, it is nobody's business. What we are asked to do is to love, and this love itself will render both ourselves and our neighbors worthy if anything can.


~ Thomas Merton ~
(1915 - 1968)

Love. That's all. Just love.

Love. That's enough. Not just for Thursdays, but for everyday.

I agree with Joan. Every day is a gift and we should show love every day!

But why, oh why, is it so hard? I"m finding it REALLY hard to love alot of the people in this state. I've never lived in a slave state before. It never occurred to me before that that would make a difference. But it does.
