The Quest

Have you ever been in that not so pleasant kind of situation in which all you have clamored and fought for in such a die hard manner is laid at your feet, right in front of you? What was the feeling like?

You smile but the smile is just half way an efflux from the heart. Its more like coming from the head.

You’ve gotten your revenge, but it seems not vengeful enough.

You underestimated the strength of love over hate

The heart wants to love freely, wants to be happy , but the quest for vengeance is some what forward, always trying to be ahead.

You address issues like one with a chip on his shoulder, being spiteful dishing out the anger.

Always at the point of proving a point even when it isn’t necessary.

Watch it! We do not see beyond what we apparently see. I mean the point you are trying to prove, don’t you think some one else already knows?

“I am happy”, so you say but here’s another question… Is that really happiness?

The quest for happiness has sent many running down the dark path of hate and bitterness because they ignorantly thought that happiness is only about self gratification.

Then they realize that the worth of living itself is not in the taking but in the giving.

Not in the ‘me satisfaction’ but in the ‘ us satisfaction’

Not in the ‘doing you’ all the time, but in the ‘doing us’ sometimes.

Not in the ‘ me happiness’ but in the ‘ we happiness’, which results to joy.

There’s hope even for a tree that has been hewed down, that at the scent of water it will spring up. You can still conquer that quest… The quest for true happiness. Ask me how…

It is conquerable by putting behind the hurt, pain, agony, strife and bitterness and looking forward to the things ahead with faith and hope because hope maketh not ashamed.

Enough!, we have tried fetching happiness using the hate pail which in turn contaminates the content of our happiness turning it into hate, strife and unhealthy competition.

Let’s give love a chance,let’s fetch from the well of happiness with the pail of love. Trust me… Nothing can go wrong. The Content will come out as pure and undefiling.

These are the lasting moments of our lives , when we infect others with our happiness. When it is no longer about me or you, but about me and you.

Remember this as you attend to each days need, ” let love lead”… The love of God has been shared abroad in our hearts.

These are my thoughts, what about yours?

I couldn’t agree less, do you agree?
