Gratitude
~A to Z This is Me!~
~ A to Z This Is Me!~ Amazing and Accomplished, is what this life has come to be, with all the odds against me, I still came through, and though you'd think I'd be satisfied with all that I've done, I still dream of the dreams of what I want yet still to come; and how helping others in the end in all that I have to tell, will be the sunshine and the rays in that new day when the reward of these words and what they do for others will be the final glory!

Rediscovering Love: Transcending Self-Interest in a Modern World
In our contemporary society, the essence of love appears to be diminishing, overshadowed by a self-serving mentality that I refer to as "what's in for me." The narrative of Remy of Kotzk vividly illustrates this point. Remy once encountered a young man savoring a dish of fish and questioned his motive. "Why are you eating that fish?" Remy asked. The young man replied, "Because I love fish." Remy retorted, "You don't love the fish; you love yourself. The fish merely satisfies your taste buds." Too often, what we label as love resembles "fish love," centered on fulfilling personal desires rather than genuine care for the other.
