How Many Times?

by stewart

I wonder how many times

I have walked upon this planet.

Certainly this is not my first trip;

I am an old time traveler who has returned, building upon past vacations.

Sometimes, I wonder why I put myself through this journey again and again.

The flesh decays; sunshine turns to darkness and those you love pass away.

Why return to this place of sorrow and tragedy?

 

Yet, the heart whispers- because without bitterness there can be no sweetness.

Without loneliness there can be no love.

Without death there can be no life.

All to be shared, over and over again;

all to know the Creator, myself, and others more fully.

 

Personally joining in the action of creation- moment by moment.
