Knowing Life
Аuthor: Stefan Ivov/ posted on 15 Octomber 2008

Day after day the root of love dries in us.
Youth loses the sparkle for life, the candle-wick grows faint.
We paint ourselves with lies and mask our faces, covering the pain. We put on the clothes of “freedom”, but our ankles are in chains.
We bow our heads and think about what we have missed, about the unused moments and chances to give our hearts and emotions to the ones that deserve.
We look back and our soul freezes from the fears capturing our dreams.
We wonder whether we have lost ourselves, rejecting the most precious – our life. We are surrounded from friends and relatives, we speak about the past, but are afraid to speak about the future.
We are waiting for someone to extend their hand to us, to smile to us and to emrace us. We feel lonely.
How to others see our attitude towards us ourselves? Do we look strong or weak in their eyes?

We are looking through the window of our soul to see what we have achieved and what we have given to others.
We are seeking the memories of life, but the hour of truth is overtaking us.
And in this hour of truth we understand that we have been taught to kill the undesired, to take pleasure in sweetness, to hate the different, to despise the weak, to take instead of give, and to hate instead of forgive.
This have taught us our blind “teachers”…. To be slaves of our “Ego”.
So, our memories turn into shadows,
So we – reflected in the escape of our soul.

Why do we want to stand in the dark shadows of hopelessness, instead of welcome the rays of light?
Why do we want to talk about everything, but not about Life?
Why do we hide from the truth?
Wherever we are, and in every moment during day and night, the voice of truth whispers to us about Life, trying to wake us up from our nightmares.
This voice is saying: There is One, Whose words comfort, heal and bind up the wounds of the heart.

There is One, Whose Love absorb the pain and restores the demolished.
There is One, Whose heart calls us by name and names us wonderful.
Yes… He is the best teacher of life, because He is LIFE.
They call him the Keeper of truth and wisdom.
He is the answer to everything we search.

The doors of hope open before us and the cloudy curtain which had blinded us, withdraws itself.
Our dreams get released from the captivity of fear.
We welcome the breeze of Faith.
This is a new road, by which we have not yet walked.

We were lost, but now we are found, we were blind, but now we can see.

When LIFE meets you, do not run because of the “blindness” of the world, because this is no excuse for not being a child of God…!

Life is a gift, do not miss this chance!
