Sometimes information is there but not obvious as we would like it to be. An example is the road to hell is wide. What is not said is that it is dark and the road to heaven is narrow but again it is not said but with a few minutes reading we find that it is well lit. Yes, the light shines in all corners and we have to understand that in order to find the true meaning is sometimes a matter of reading and thinking.
Again, the information is available to those that search and look for it. When writing these articles, I sometimes start to imagine when looking back and seeing what is said that I think I am more than I am. On further analysis I have to understand that for me to be of any use to you the reader or me the writer that I must be as a mirror and reflect that which is available to me. It is hard sometimes to keep the fingers off the mirror and pass that which should be said from what I think I am. The gift I receive did not generate in me it came as a gift and as such I must try to remember that.
Bottom line in order to fallow a narrow road one must look to the light in order to see the way. That light is bright and available to all who only ask and takes the time to look for it. I have no gift that all of you do not have. In fact, there are very few out there who read this that has less to offer than I do. Most have better writing abilityβs further education and less baggage from the past.
I am reminded of a story of a golfer who hit the ball into an ant hill and when he got ready to hit it he missed the ball and killed ten thousand antβs. He lined up again and as before he missed the ball and killed ten thousand more antβs. He keep this up until two ants remained. One ant turned to the other and said if we want to live we better get on the ball.
That pretty much sums up how I see it if we are to find the light we had better get on the ball.
