The Dragon Slayer

To my friends

Well, what a great morning again. Had coffee with an old friend. Not that he's got a lot of years on him, of course, just that i've known him a long time. Hahahahah.
He knows who he is.

As usual we were talking about spiritual matters and i was noting that as i grow up, (as opposed to growing older)hmm. Okay, so i'm growing older too. Anyhow, i stated to my friend that loving people is hard. But then i realized that looking at other people through my own prejudices makes loving them hard. But when God pushes aside my prejudices and slays them (my dragons), I can see people through His eyes, and it is not difficult at all. It is quite lovely and sweet; granted sometimes it is bitter sweet when we see those we love going through unnecessary pain, but i find myself willing and able to come along side them with a nonjudgmental and loving Spirit. Amen. hahahahaahah. Really, it's a great way to go.

Often the tentacles of my long-standing prejudices have been deep and far reaching. It's different for all of us i think, but only in degrees. We all have these dragons. But, alas! In steps the Dragon Slayer !! YaaaaaHoooooo! God is Good

Later everyone.

My friend, thank you for a great morning.
