Heal the World

Lying is an ugly blot of a person's character, but ignorant people do it all the time. A thief is better than a habitual liar but both are headed for ruin. A liar has no honour. He lives in constant disgrace.

My friend had a broken relationship in her marriage and this had caused herself and her family great pain. They are now heading for a civil divorce. A relationship that began with high ideals, joy and optimism has degenerated into distrust, anger, rejection and self-pity. What was once "one flesh" has been torn apart.

After three decades of marriage the husband said to her one day that he found another woman much gentler than her. It was hard for her to accept the husband departure but then again I asked her what was great about him. "Let him go. You have settled it and you cannot change it. Look away from him and leave him alone and let him enjoy his hard life if he can."

There is so much life out there. Go out and heal the world.
