Personal Brief History of Romance
I
once thought love: was putting family first; then being friends. But things get
in the way. I once thought love was to have a special girl however this was a
thing too and other things were in the way. I had known the love of the Lord –
Lord, why do we let things rule the day. Is brotherhood love or a special
friend love immune from drama or other things? It has not appeared so. I love
cherish, it is true or worse shame when things ruin that too. To run a
household, face a personal challenge or embrace a universal cause does romance
the soul. Failure and success are the things which frustrate the love of life.
To study, learn and self-educate do not lend to humble make the body who would avoid
self-love. Self-mastery, self-denial and self-mortification without love are
only a step above. The Master came to share the Good News, repent all things
which impede the Love of God and neighbours with all the heart, soul and
strength. Then the Master suffered and died because mankind gets it wrong but
hallelujah Jesus rose again. Christ lives to set all people free from things to
love again which is the only true romance. Forgive and forget the past is the
way to God. The truth is there is only one Lord; three persons: Father, Son of
God and their Holy Spirit. The love of the Pascal Sacrifice, the Bride, the
Church, the Mother down through ages; my life is Light. It is this Enlightenment
this history of salvation for all persons not to burden us with science,
medicine, technology and physical fitness that gives life the sparkle of
romance. Mediate on the Passion of Christ, God became Man, the Love of the Father,
to suffer, be crucified, died and be buried this is the obsession of vitality. Under
the compulsion of the Spirit contemplate a new life to act upon the impulse to
give of oneself not to profit me but to love is the future. Now to spend time
in Adoration of the Eucharist exposed is the thing that can’t be beat. We still
need to study the Word and do works of mercy. The Master healed the sick, cared
for the poor and forgave sinners. The life of the Church, the Sacraments, our
family is the joy of life, the love of neighbour as oneself. Faith with works
is the love of life more blessed to give than to receive. And to share the
Faith, keep the Faith, cherish the Hope and the history of love unfolds.
