To forgive is divine, to love is human

On Wednesday, I recalled one of my favourite verses, and that is "To forgive is divine, to love is human". Love is a wonderful creation of God, and God forgive(giving a gift) us with love. Therefore, to honour God with our life, we should love one another. As Jesus Christ have said, "Love your lord, your God with all your heart, all your soul, all your strength and all your mind, and love your neighbour as yourself." This is a fundamental truth in life. Love is forever. There is one Russian poet whom I admire and appreciate truly for his fine piece of literary art.

"Love is God's creation, the whole and every grain of sand in it.
Love every leaf, every ray of God's light.
Love the animals, love the plants,
Love everything. If you love everything,
you will perceive the divine mystery in things.
Once you perceive it, you will begin to
comprehend it better each day. And you
will come at last to love the whole world
with an all-embracing love."
Fyodor Dostoyevsky

He is a naturalist, and he welcome the whole world and its beauty with praises in word and soul. Indeed, to view the world with love is a wonderful service to yourself. This is God's greatest gift to man, the ability to love. A human who love is light-hearted, and life each day is like a breeze in the park. This can be the beginning of our eternity in the light of love.
