Embrace It
It comes into my life,
the things I want,
the things I don’t
and that which I dread.
Sometimes I want to push things away,
run from them,
place barriers between us,
and create ways to avoid
what I do not want to embrace.
Yet I remember that
what life brings me
is a gift,
an opportunity to grow,
a chance to embrace the grace
and the goodness from the Ultimate.
It is not about the challenge,
but how I address it.
So when people bring me their hate
their bias,
and their prejudice
how do I respond.
Do I respond out of hurt,
anger,
pain,
resentment,
and hate?
Or do I remember
that they have not been exposed to
the same teachings of the Ultimate
I have.
Do I embrace this
as an opportunity
to share a truth
I have been given from above.
Do I embrace this opportunity
and offer all the grace
offered to me
and love others
as I have been loved.
Do I love you,
even when you do not love me?
Do I remember to embrace you,
even when you
do not want to embrace me?
Today I embrace all,
even if from a distance,
because all is helping me
to grow.
