Life is Short

I don't think a lot of people realize that life is so short. One day our lives are going to end and eternity will begin. These last few months I've had to experience what it's like to have people dislike you for really no good reason. I've thought about hating them back, but then I thought about what I really should do. God only gives us one chance to live on this earth and the way we live it is what determines our destiny after life. I don't want to live my life hating others and then spend an eternity wishing I hadn't. So I pray for those that dislike me to have a change of heart. Not for who I am, but for eternity with God. We should even love our enemies. That is probably one of the hardest things to do in this life. It's a challenge that I'm going to take on and hopefully live up to.

i was thinking about what you said..

"...we should even love our enemies..."

i have nothing against that, and i appauld you for being able to do so. it is a difficult feat to achieve and i am one of those not able to do so.

as far as i am concern, don't take it to heart for what others think or say of you. it does not make a difference. what matters is that you love yourself and that you have faith in yourself to carry on with your life and the things you need to do, and more importantly.. being around people who love you for you. there is more to you as a person than anything else, and if people cannot see that..then i would feel sad for them..not hate...
