Do you gamble away every gift God gives you, are you reckless?
"Love is reckless; not reason. Reason seeks a profit. Love comes on strong, consuming herself unabashed. Yet in the midst of suffering love proceeds like a millstone, hard surfaced and straight forward. Having died to self interest, she risks everything and asks for nothing. Love gambles away every gift God bestows. Without cause God gave us Being; without cause give it back again. Gambling yourself away is beyond any religion. Religion seeks grace and favor, but those who gamble these away are Gods favorites, for they neither put God to the test nor knock at the door of gain and loss" (Rumi)
Tokes: LOL Perhaps.
I have never thought of Love as a Gamble....but if it be one....then I am a complete addict to the Game......as I am the one who would risk all for Love....give all....risk all....surrender all.....Still there is more, for I see Love is an endless pool from which we may drink all that we desire and more.....what we need and want is fully there for us.....without need of a door of Gain or of Loss....Love does not give us Gold in our pockets....Love gives us Gold in our hearts.....what we give in Love comes back to us threefold, so therefore, I say to You that I do not see a Risk in Love.....only Reward....even if it be that we would give Love to One who did not give it back.....still we have more Gold and not Loss....for it is our Heart that has Loved....and is the Richer for that act of Loving....Sadness may visit but it cannot Banish Love......no more do I test the Deity.....Reason would deem it pointless to question the ability of a sea whose depth and breadth are limitless, as to its ability to fill my Cup....for in Truth, my simple, small cup doth runneth over....Would you like a sip?....LOL.....I am teasing you...for I know full well your cup is ever spilling over also......
