ENEMIES
“The Bible tells us to love our neighbors and also to love our enemies; probably because they are generally the same people.”
“The Bible tells us to love our neighbors and also to love our enemies; probably because they are generally the same people.”
— G. K. Chesterton
The spiritual program that I embrace makes me look to where I am, rather than where I want to be. I must live in the now, rather than the never-never-land of tomorrow.
To love my world I need to seek to understand those people who live in my world. To love my world involves an acceptance of those who are different from me. I must seek to build bridges, rather than barriers. It is so easy for me to talk about loving and being concerned for the starving millions and forgetting to love and relate to the typist in my office or the neighbor down the street.
I have some experience of people who can be difficult because I lived with the addicted me for many years; I am the key to my enemies.
