For DVerse’s quadrille, a poem of 44 words and containing a specific word. This week, we are all “rich.” Also shared with Forgiving Fridays because I think that forgiveness is being rich in love, for yourself and other people, and unforgiveness blocks love.
Material wealth can be true poverty,
Without in love becoming rich:
Possessions can a cage begin to be,
If someone clings to them, is selfish,
Believing he needs no one else.
To let another in, to share is sweet,
and it makes life complete.

How easy it is for humans to be caged by possessions – not so for animals, which are caged by humans. He final lines are so true.

To gather more than you need or to flaunt your gold for the poor is a true sin, and makes you a poor person.

How true. This reminds me of somebody’s words saying in effect that “one’s so poor he only has money”.

Oh––so beautiful and true. Self-forgiveness is a key to unlock the loving in our hearts, isn’t it? And, it is rich!!
Thank you for contributing this to #ForgivingFrdiays. I experience such vulnerability and openness and loving simply by reading it. I’ll share it in my next post!
Also, I have a neat resource you may enjoy on Self-forgiveness and letting go into love. If you’re interested, email me at weloveyou@forgivingconnects.com. And if not, entirely fine too! ❤
