My Sweet Lord
by
George Harrison
Life is never easy but it's better if we face the vicissitudes of life with optimism.
One more thing, never ever forget to be grateful always... ;-)
The most powerful force in our lives is our ability to love.
Indeed, it’s the most basic essence of who we are.
The whole idea of compassion is based on a keen awareness of the other.
The whole purpose of life is to live by love.
-Thomas Merton
Last night my seventeen year old cousin Jason sent me this quote on my mobile. I was shocked and I wanted to weep for a while because I never expected such a young man to send serious stuff on the phone. Most kids his age don't even bother to send messages at all but then maybe I underestimated that age group.
Here I am, a decade older than my cousin yet I still refuse to understand what his message meant. I choose not to understand it. It will only make things more complicated than they already are.
Here I am, twenty-seven years and a day older from the day I was ripped from my mother's womb, and I am still very stubborn.
Running away is not an option.
Repressing emotions is not the solution.
Living life and loving it could be a good start...
The Beatles could be right...
It's EASY.
All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love, LOVE IS ALL YOU NEED...
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love.
There's nothing you can do that can't be done.
Nothing you can sing that can't be sung.
Nothing you can say but you can learn how to play the game
It's easy.
There's nothing you can make that can't be made.
No one you can save that can't be saved.
Nothing you can do but you can learn how to be in time
It's easy.
All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love, love is all you need.
Love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love, love.
All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love, love is all you need.
There's nothing you can know that isn't known.
Nothing you can see that isn't shown.
Nowhere you can be that isn't where you're meant to be.
It's easy.
All you need is love, all you need is love,
All you need is love, love, love is all you need.
All you need is love (all together now)
All you need is love (everybody)
All you need is love, love, love is all you need.
