When life is a horror....Don't look like a ghost!
A Course in Miracles says we think we're going to understand people in order to figure out whether or not they're worthy of our love,_ but that actually, until we love them, we can never understand them. _What is not loved is not understood. _We hold ourselves separate from people and wait for them to earn our love, but people deserve our love because of what God created them to be. _As long as we're waiting for them to be anything better, we will constantly be disappointed. _When we choose to join with them through approval and unconditional love, the miracle kicks in for both parties. This is the primary key, the ultimate miracle, in relationships.
