Love is my religion. Miracles don't matter.
Life itself is a miracle. The whole universe
is a miracle, and every creation in it is, too.
Jesus didn't tell those who gathered round
him how to get rich. He told them to love
one another. One can only give what one
has received. When one has been loved by
another, that is a miracle. And when the
one who has been loved loves another,
that is another miracle. This is the spiritual
concatenation we need now. There is only
one Supreme Being of the infinite universe,
even though different groups of human
beings around the world call the same
Supreme Being a different name. Don't
you get it? Don't you see the big picture?
We all are creations of the same Supreme
Being. Get it?! We, all creations through-
out the infinite universe, are in this to-
gether. And yet we **** each other. We
even are killing Earth where all of us
live, the only home we have. Love is
our only hope. Love is our only salva-
tion. Every creation is connected to all
others. Get it? Geopolitics among over
200 nations is not the answer, is not the
solution. Love is not only my religion:
It is our only solution for the survival
of all living creations on Earth.
