A touch of love.

Do you every have those moments when you are surrounded by people in a party or home acivity, and time seems to freeze for a moment when you look at each one around you and realize that if each was taken from you tommarrow that you would have not said everything you wanted to say to them or done any of the things you wanted to do? many times i feel that we(I) spend much of our time concentrated on the faults,cracks,or idioms of those we(if we where honest) really love and cherish.I have started to ask myself when i am tempted to get irritated, angry,or fustrated with someone;"If they left now would my last words be ones of love?how much would I miss them?is this comment,sarcasm,foolish remark or fustration how i would want them to remember me?" I know this is a bit drastic and odd but, would you treat someone different if you knew it would be the last time you saw them?Or would you try new experiences with them if you had nothing to lose?Would it be ludacris to say that your life would be more loving ,exciting and fun if you lived it that way? I think not.what holds me back? pride,fear of the opinions of man,a additude of "i can be loving or fix it later",a lack of the freedom of the spirit. you may laugh, poke fun or find me odd for this ,but ask your self what held you back today? what caused you to hold back from loving someone, giving yourself and sacrificing for another,showing them appreciation,giving love ,sex or whatever it was that you could have done to encourage or make there day(or night)better. I think you will be surprised with your answer. if we all try this think of the metanoia that this would bring about in our homes and lives with our loved ones and those we work with.
