Everything that is created is all for a reason ,it reveals its self sooner or later ,I have a poem of great love I wrote about 4 years ago , of a spiritual minister and his best friend ,they became friends and she knew what had happened before ,so did he but he pretended so as to not break up a happy family ..And the girl well she had to clear up her past life ,and take back what was hers and move on ….

Past Lives

Our energy takes us back to ancient times
When we were lovers, friends and partners in crime
That’s when you stole my heart
And left us in two worlds apart
Come back to me, I said as you died
And for many lifetimes I still have cried
For the love of my life took with him my heart
There in time we sat galaxies apart
Then one day the past became present
And the two friends met by accident
But God said, “No, this is heaven-sent
“So give her back the heart you took
And with rage, anger and discontent
She did it again and said what she meant
Because he acted like he forgot
So she locked her heart away in all
Its fragments and from that day on he
Had to live in banishment
As God said, this was no accident

Beautiful story Paulo,
thank You.

It’s so true that, when we make mistakes, behave wrongly, we regret it so much that we want to do something outstanding, something special, something very, very good to correct it, to erase it, somehow.
We want to do so much so someone can have an impression as it actually never happened.
By doing that, we give a lot more than we would do if we didn’t do anything wrong.

Pope John Paul II wrote:
“evil can only exist with the relation to good, with the relation to God”

so,
everything we do to redeem the evil always create the good.
As the love will win over hate, the resurrection over death - the Good will always win over evil.

love
Agnieszka

I agree with the first part. These mistakes the great artists make produce an other expression of themselves. And so they invoke different feelings, they are just a different way to speak to their soul.If i take a musician for instance, and he wrongly either wittingly or accidentaly tries a different let say ‘wrong’(=not expected) chord/melody , then he puts himself on paths that maybe others have not experienced, and so new possibilities are reavealed, and great feelings emerge..
Don’t be afraid of the unknown.
Now, for the second part - true lovers- i believe love is a path that may send you to heaven or to the abyss.. So, i don’t think i agree with the part that if a person who loves makes mistakes, this can unleash any compensations…Because of the fact that no one loves the same way the other does, and that is because we cannot define love, the other person (that the first one possibly hurt) may be drawn to the abyss..
