As
humans, we view death as an antagonist that each of us cannot avoid; yet as
created beings we need to apprehend the concept of time associated with imminent
death through the eyes of love. If the Creator breathes life into humans from His
image of love then the resolution of time evolves from death by the revelation
of love. Without death, time lacks the existence
to perfect the essence of love. Conversely, to experience the circle of life,
death must occur. So humans who focus only with the quantity of years actually hinder
the existence of time causing persons to equalize love with death.
Please
permit a clearer explanation of this comparison. From a human perspective, time
enables us to perform, develop, explore, and conduct the necessary functions as
humans. Yet, time only exists because of the pending death that awaits. The
measurement of life centers on the allotted time to conduct necessities and
pleasures; nevertheless, the true measurement of life rests with its substance
instead of a number sequence. How many times after the death, you will hear
reflections like he died too young? This observation alone emphasizes the
importance of measuring time quantifiable so the weight of its value offsets
death, instead of viewing death as part of time and love. If you remove the
numbers of quantifying time and recognize all three -- time, death and love as
a function comparable to a vessel carrying passengers over the water toward a
destination. Metaphorically, love resembles the vessel, time serves as the
source to move the vessel like water, and death stands as the destination to
unfold the meaning of transporting the vessel. This example allows you to grasp
the concept of time, death and love as a totality of experiences instead of disconnected
happenings that leads to a continuation of ones’ existence.
Time enables humans to progress toward their true existence
as created beings in the image of their Creator. Time exists as one day or 1,000
years in human terms, but the Creator views such numbering as irrelevant. Alterable, time abridges life only as a source for love. This source transports
humans to the port of transitioning known as death. In other words, time is the
means for measuring the quality of love that creates a horizontal transitioning
course through death. The lack of exercising love
toward others causes remorse associated with time even if the person multiplied
the accumulation of material wealth, his time remains insufficient. As human,
the ability to love creates the dominant need for existence; therefore, the
qualities of love produces intangibles to enable one to comprehend and
experience the saying by Vicki Corona, “Remember
that life is not measured by the number of breaths we take, but by the moments
that take our breath away!” So the measure of time only equates with the magnitude
of ones’ love experiences instead of a mathematical value comparable to ones’
longevity.
Each of us must evolve as human beings as the Creator
intended. Such an evolution only occurs when humans cultivate the love quality
instilled from origin. Death never steals the life; death only demonstrates
love. Therefore, humans who emanate their Creator’s purpose become beings who
minimize the relevance of time and death while ensuring that their love magnifies
the reality of their existence. So, I challenge you to love both death and time
and watch the circle of life as it returns to the Creator with a known life’s
purpose.
