I'm not all that concerned with what god you follow or what you think happens after we die in this life.
One thing I know is that almost every religion or sect or group or what ever you want to call yourself can agree on trying to be people of love.
Love endures all things
Give love your own definition (The rest of the wold has and acts as if love were a possession to give away.) I don't know that I have a definition, or a box to put love in and label it but here's what I do know.
Love is patient and kind, it is neither jealous nor arrogant nor rude. Love doesn't brag or seek its own advantage. Love isn't irritable and it doesn't keep a record of complaints. Love isn't happy with injustice but rather is happy with the truth. Love puts up with all things, trusts in all things, hopes for all things and endures all things.
This is what I know of Love and I will be the first to admit that my experience with love has been a limited one.(Only because I believe love to be so vast I would even challenge Homer, Sophocles and Aristophanes to come up with more about love) If I am going to be a person living from love, in a place of love at all times, at least now I have an idea of who I am trying to be.
(a hopeful declaration)
I am patient, kind, humble, respectful, an advocate, consistent, and full of favor. I am a person who seeks the truth, puts up with all things, trusts in all things and hopes for all things. With Love I will endure all things.
With wisdom I will become more.
