The
Gift of Suffering
He
came from the distant future
to
plant the seed that changed the course
of
human history, the gift of suffering
that
makes the false self real, the gift
that
spares the soul from coming back
to
live life over again to grow in love
and
understanding, a path that goes
nowhere
but back to itself again. “There
is
no other time or place to find yourself.
Now
is your only context,” said the redeemer,
rendering
reincarnation moot; and to reap
the
gift of suffering that sets us free from
the
endless cycle of life and death,
he
died on the cross to sanctify
his
gift to the world.
