THE R O S E (the other side)

Why should I care?? People see what they want to see. They look for my beauty. They never look out for my thorns. I will rip and tear anyone that comes close to me. That will teach them to look more sharply. Why should I care?? I feel ugly even though I am thought of as beautiful. Doesn’t it matter what I feel?? Why can’t people understand. Why do they pluck at me and tear at me when I’m not in my prime. Why do they look away or not even look when I’m not at my best form in bloom.

A voice speaks: I made you that way. Were you always beautiful, no one would have a problem loving you. They need to see all aspects of my perfection. When you seem ugly and hateful, that is when they should feel love and they do not. Not that what you feel is right either. You have to know, who you are, and what your purpose is. Not to hurt and maim because of how you feel, but to know you were created as a person of beauty to Me. To bring peace and joy to others, regardless of how you feel. To know that if only I loved you, that is enough. To be happy because I made only one of you! Your reason for living is to give of whatever you have. You are unhappy because of what you have given out. Hurt instead of love; Judgement instead of forgiveness and compassion. You are accountable to Me and no one else. I have created you to be a thing of beauty, to bring happiness to others, not pain. Joy, not sadness. Open up the buds of your life. Last year is gone. You cannot bring the blossoms back. They dropped off in the (fall). Only look forward to the spring, when the buds begin to blossom again. As the petals unfold, the true beauty and peace with unfolds. Only a lover of the Rose waits all winter for this, not noticing what you do all winter, only focusing on what’s going to happen in the spring. New buds spring forth, new strength appears, and as the buds blossoms into it’s fullness, no one can remember any differently. So it shall be with you.

Focus on me, I AM the Light and Life. There is no other way but by Me. I love you . I created you. I know every day of your life. Turn to Me and you will know Me for yourself. I made no mistake. I chose you to be who you are. I LOVE YOU
