Why?

Why does my heart hurt so? Why do I find this room to be so cold? Why do so many people cry themselves to sleep? Why do we wander about this world in seek of that glitter, that shine, that something that we think will make us happy? Why do we seek to satisfy the flesh? God it has never lasted, the laughter of a joke ends, the warmth of hot tea cools, goodness of chocolate melts away in our mouths, the shouts of victorious ball games quiet down, the movie ends and we are left alone in this cold world…or at least until we get up again and search to find that pleasure…once again in the dark, in tears we find…until we face the truth…only in God will the smiles remain Forever, the warmth will stay, the sweet love will remain, the honor of victory will not be taken away, the story, well the story is being written right now…the story is you, not Audrey Hepburn, but you! God is writing our stories and these ones take more than two hours, they are…FOREVER! There will still be cold nights and tear drenched pillows but not alone, nobody wants to be alone…just open your eyes. .. … …. That rainbow, that cloud, that hug, that squirrel, that bird, that rain drop, that rain drop and that one and that one and…that sound…that thunder, that crack, that stillness, that whisper…”Abra…I love you!” shh…stop the music, it’s a train whistle (funny)…home…stop and listen to your heart, mmm…rest and peace for God is good and knows our hearts, knows our struggles and knows how to make things better…kiss the elbow and smile…for the pain lasts only a while but the joy and love well that’s FOREVER!
