"Because..."


"There is much asked and only so much I think I can or should answer, and so, in this post I would like to give a few thoughts on what seemed to be the overwhelming question: "WHY?" And here is the best answer I can give: Because. Because sometimes, life is damned unfair. Because sometimes, we lose people we love and it hurts deeply. Because sometimes there aren't really answers to our questions except for what we discover, the meaning we assign them over time. Because acceptance is yet another of life's "here's a side of hurt" lessons and it is never truly acceptance unless it has cost us something to arrive there. Why, you ask? Because, I answer. Inadequate yet true."

Someone once asked me why the posts here were so long.
The world's a complex place, you know? Why? Because...

I don't say it to others,but to myself I say "Because it's God's Will"

Unless we choose:
"Because"; is not an answer but only our starting point.

"Acceptance"; is not an end product, an impenetrable fortress, but only a rest stop.

"Cost" is always individualized. Often an elevation change prohibiting us from recognizing our net gain. All that we have and all that we will share, any gift, all gifts, are encumbrance-free.
Save for the smile they were wrapped in.

Thanks for your post as it has given me thought.
