Peace begins with self acceptance.

Love is nurtured by peace.

— — —

To hope is to seek what is not.

Hope lives in the future.

The future never comes.

— — —

Now is the only time.

Acceptance lives now.

Acceptance is recognition of what is.

Improvement begins with acceptance.

What is may need improvement.

— — —

We are creators.

We are destroyers.

We are re-creators.

We are eternal.

— — —

Sin is what causes harm.

No harm, no sin.

All harm can be healed.

There is no unforgivable sin.

— — —

That which was, is, and will be is Love.

Life is Love.

— — —

Wisdom is to know you do not know.

Peace is to accept wisdom.

— — —

Friendship comes before love.

Trust comes before friendship.

Then comes respect.

Then comes love.

This is why we are.
