We Become One

I think no matter our differences, we are all much more alike than we may think.

On the outside

we all seem different

black, white, gay, and straight

overweight, skinny, tall, and short

drug addict, alcoholic, sinner, and saint.

Yet one things brings us all together,

there is one thing that can create ties between

the two most unlikely people you could imagine.

Love.

In love there is power,

the power to create a peace,

a harmony in an otherwise chaotic world.

In love you lose sight of discrimination and hatred,

physical and emotional differences,

of addictions, sins, and self-righteousness.

Loves is within each one of us and

it is love that rebuilds the broken heart,

gives us the strength to forgive, and to let go,

and it is love that we yearn for

no matter how bad we have hurt before.

In love we become one,

tied together by a world of unspoken similarities.

I thought this was superbly written.
Such a positive message, everyone
can write about woes and carnage,
But love and tranquility now that's
a gift. Great write Carlie...
