INTRODUCTION
Love for Life
Love for life,
passion for
life, deep
gratitude for
every moment
of it,
extending
one's heart
and brain into
eternity and
totality, from
the fishes and
the fowl to
the stars,
from youth to
old age, from
the glaciers
to the
tropics, from
the prodigy of
birth to the
mystery of
death, humans
can partake in
all creation
if they switch
on, deep
inside, the
will for life,
the decision
for happiness,
the option for
love. I have
'decided' to
love my life,
to throw in my
gauntlet for
it, to believe
in it, to find
it exalting in
every respect,
at every
moment, from
the beginning
to the end.
Yes, we must visualize at all times how precious life will seem at the moment of our death. Then only will we be ready to give up our pretensions, foolishness, and possessions for a measure of additional life. "All my wealth, all my power for one more year of life." There is so much magic in life, in these colors, in these shapes, in this drop of shining light in the gigantic dark universe. Yes, our planet is a prodigious miracle, a unique happening in billions of years of evolution, in aeons of light-years of space. We will never cherish it enough. We will never be grateful enough. This miracle should be the object of our constant love, joy, admiration and care. We should stand in awe before the mysterious forces that brought it into being. But instead, so many of us are complaining, unhappy, and somber. How is that possible? Why can't we realize that all this could well not be, that evolution could have produced a different planet, a lifeless planet, at another distance from the sun, with a different inclination or orbit, a different atmosphere, flora, and fauna, another human body, heart and mind? All great religions, prophets, and visionaries saw it better than the scientists of today. They demanded respect for creation and for the mysterious forces behind it. Our colossal contemporary knowledge should have increased our elation and our thankfulness for the wonders of nature. Instead, we have lost much of our love and happiness. We must lift ourselves again high above our microscopes, telescopes, books, newspapers, television and computers, and see again the total beauty of a flower, of a brook, of a woman, of a child, of the world, of the stars. Yes, our miraculous planet Earth should irradiate human thankfulness and joy into every direction of the universe. ~ From my book: Most of All, They Taught Me Happiness, 1978. Robert's The Miracle, Joy and Art of Living Volume II - The Art of Personal Happy Living Chapter 4 - On Positive Living
There are
immense virtues in
encouragement (to put
heart into). We must
stimulate each other to
be good, happy, positive
people. We must validate
each other.
