To Only Love

To only love:

I’m not a Christian, at least not in the sense that I follow the doctrine of any church or organized system of religion — however, there is a relationship here with Jesus, personal and more meaningful now than when I was member of the Catholic faith. Jesus comes to me as a guide and loving brother, wise, and so patient with his teaching. I am urged over and over again to forgive and to live my life through the grace of love and continuous compassion.

anything outside of this path no longer really concerns me.

I am content to only love.

taking the actual teachings of Jesus to heart, no social platform, no theocracy, not a single translator other then my most deepest heart — I simply love to the best that I’m able, dismissing distinctions made by my ego, and surrendering, surrendering, surrendering….every doubtful thought that tells me how impossible it will be to live my life this way.

I take Jesus at his word -

loving others

as myself.

no matter how hard it might be

to sometimes see this.
