An Essay regarding my personal motto:
* * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * * *
My Motto arrived Thusly: This I know: I exist. I think, therefore I am. The proverbial cogito ergo sum.
My being, like all men and women, consists of a physical body, including a brain composed of grey matter, and a self aware mind, which seems to have a Character, Attitude, Personality, Spirit. … Physical, Mental, and Spiritual are we.
Like most, I’ve looked up and contemplated the Universe. Like some I’ve contemplated my navel and how wonderfully made are my parts. And , like many, I’ve had a burning thirst for knowledge of the Truth, for Understanding that Truth, and for Wisdom to know what to do with the Truth.
I asked the big questions: What am I? Why do I exist? Is there purpose to this existence?
Mystery after mystery. Though I searched, answers eluded me for years until I found a Key that unlocked the mysteries. It opened the Bible to my understanding. The Key has become, for me, the key to self improvement and empowerment. It has given me the skill of a sourcist, the sight of a Seer, and the Power of a Prophet. And if you can receive it, the Key has opened the door to the next plane of existence, the place where the Creator intended for us in this life. This is a confession, not a boast.
This has set me apart from the majority who do not know of this Key to Life [1 in 10?]. It places me on a solitary path that only occasionally brings me into contact with like minded individuals.
So close to it are so many, yet the key is rejected by most of them because they usually only hear a distorted blathering when the key gets mentioned in a “religious” context. I’ve even watched a person put hands to ears and walk hurriedly away when God was mentioned. No wonder, really. The Key will kill you. Not physically, of course, but literally and spiritually. And no one wants to die. On the contrary we usually go kicking and screaming and clinging to life to the last.
But at the same time, once so slain, the Key will lift you up to a new life, and a new plane of existence where all of man’s problems become clear and the answers to it all are obvious to you.
And the Key is so simple and yet so profound.
Love is all Give. … Lust is all Get.
(Please do not confuse this definition with what people usually refer to as love. The desire to get love is not love itself. What is usually referred to in romantic writings and portrayals as love falls far short of this definition and is really only desire which is self wanting to fill the hole within.
Love is an outgoing concern for the welfare of others while Lust is an inward concern for wants of self.
Love is like a cornucopia of all good gifts. Lust is like an all consuming vortex.
The Spirit, Attitude, Character, and Personality that is defined by the word Love has life in abundance because of the way it treats its environment and the people around them.
The spirit, attitude, character and personality defined by the word Lust, is a most miserable creature indeed, due to the world it creates for itself by how it treats its environment and the people around them.
Therefore I, in truth, worship Love. I emulate Love. I want to be Love. My God is Love.
You can’t make an organized religion of that. Man’s religions are mostly just group control mechanisms anyway.
True religion is the Chivalric Way of going to the aid of orphans and widows. Seeing right done to the downtrodden and needy. Ridding them out of the hand of the wicked. Love in action and power.
Love speaks to every problem man faces and shows the way to solution.
Marriage between a man and a woman becomes a 100/100 proposition wherein each is only concerned with giving 100% to the other.
In a 50/50 relationship each is actually more concerned with getting their full share from the other and less concerned with giving their reluctant half.
All good springs from Love.
All evil stems from the way of Lust.
This definition of Love is a light that reveals the motives of men.
A word spoken by Love is like the word of the Prophet with the power to crush like a hammer and strike like lightning or lift up like the hands of angels and protect like their covering wings. How is this so? It is so because Love seeks out the true best interests of all involved. Love looks into the spirit and sees and recognizes the cause of evil and with knowledge speaks a very pointed word of wisdom or speaks even louder with actions to remedy the cause and counteract the evil exposed.
The evil must not be allowed to live. It must be stoned to death. "You must not allow evil to exist in your midst. …" To the natural mind this means picking up rocks and throwing them at someone accused of evil in order to slaughter them body and soul. Love’s correct interpretation is to cast precious stones that are gems of wisdom that apply to the matter at hand until the person is slain in their spirit, and broken hearted and ready for the newness of the Way of Love.
Love is a sword in the hand of a true knight.
For this reason my motto is ever … “Love is all Give.”
