A wise and understanding heart does not
repay a hurt with a hurt. In doing so, the
heart is diminished. Fissures form. Love
leaks out. Every pain given in return for
one received, changes the contents of the
heart. It is no longer defined by love,
wisdom and understanding. It is redefined by
the bearers of hurt and hate, pain and
prejudice, meanness and madness, sorrow and
sadness. You give away control of your very
own heart. |

The despair of being hurt is healed by
overcoming it, not clinging to the hurt and
inflicting more of it on the world. When
darkness is added to darkness, no one can
see, no one can love. Everyone loses.
Love is not always warm and fuzzy. Sometimes
it's the integrity we hold on to when we're
tempted to strike back. Sometimes it's the
honor that keeps us from exchanging the
valuable contents of our heart for the harsh
satisfaction of lashing back.
No, the way of love is not always easy, but
when night falls, dawn is assured.
The integrity and honor of a wise and
understanding heart, rises with the sun of a
new day.
"Because you have asked for understanding to
discern judgment. I have given you a wise
and understanding heart." 1 Kings 3:11-12
Living in love and loving life.
