A parable of love




There were once two women watching a man. He wrapped a blindfold around his eyes, spun himself in circles and then proceeded to walk towards a 500 foot cliff.



The first woman said, “Hey! You are heading towards a cliff! You are going to fall off and DIE!” and she ran to the man and grabbed him and tried to turn him around. She even tried to pull the blindfold off.



The second woman said, “Leave him alone. This is his choice to make. Just because that path wouldn’t work for you doesn’t mean it won’t work for him. He has a right to make his own decisions. You are just being judgmental and intolerant. How self-righteous can you get to think your path is the right one for everyone!”



Which woman really loved the man?

Thank you so much for commenting! I love to talk to my readers.

I do ask that there be no anonymous commenters, though. If I am brave enough to put my name on this blog, you should be too:-)

Please keep it civil. Remember we are all human and make mistakes, and that since we can't see each other's faces or hear each other's tone of voice, it is very hard to get the emotion in what we are saying each other. Use lots of emoticons! :-) And show grace and love to each other.
