On Gratefulness and Love

Yet at the end of the day, it's not how much love we've received, but how much love we've given. It's a matter of valuing and cherishing the people that comes our way. It's not everyday that we meet people who love us, give a high regard to us and in reflection, we come to realize that people, life and love is a gift. And so it is a gift, we therefore be grateful for it, take hold of it, embrace it, because people come and go, people changed, feelings changed, love to indifference, friends to strangers, whatsoever, even life in its truest sense is finite, nothings fixed, today's events is tomorrows memories, so make the most of every moment loving the people whom God has given to us.

One hundred years from now, in our deathbed, as we look back every iota of memories, the yesteryears, it is not at all important how many awards, honors, recognition, positions, fame, accolades we received, but how many people we loved in our lifetime that matters, how we were able to touch each and everyones lives.

As a pilgrims we all leave our body behind, 2 Corinthians 5: 10 says, when all of us must appear before Christ, to be judged by him. We will each receive what we deserve, according to everything we have done, good or bad, in our bodily life. The love of God is infinite, and so at the end of the day, it's not how much love we've received, but how much love we've given.

Be blessed.

Love your articles. Realization that life is simple if we make it simple and hard if we make it hard. Of course we need to have a purpose why we live, why we need to live, and why we continue to live.
