We are more than the sum of our individual parts. We are complex, but beautiful in our complexities. Our design is brilliant and intricate. Each and every  body houses a soul, heart, and a mind. We were designed with the capacity and the ability to love, to learn, to  create, and exceed the ordinary. Your sum is greater than your parts. Love all of you not just the part that you see with your human eye. Embrace and care for all of you. Refuse to starve your mind, spirit, soul, or your body. Refuse to let others break you.

Brokenness

Brokenness is  a fragmentation of the whole. To be broken is to be  fractured or to be in possession of a broken heart, spirit, will, or body.

In such, the pieces of your whole no long support your happiness, health, or well-being. The result is apathy, depleted stores of energy, emptiness; essentially zombification.  In such there is an urgency. It is not the end all.

We must strive to put those pieces together.

We must muster everything within us to mend those fragmented pieces of our whole, so that we may grow into the beautiful beings we were designed to be.

Our charge to others

That we love,

We are charged to love others as we love ourselves.

Where is the love.

Perhaps this is the illness that has riddled such plagues upon our world lending to overwhelming brokenness; a dearth of love. Perhaps too  many have given up on the whole and embrace on pieces of themselves.

How can one give what he or she does not possess.

Of all the things that bear the most urgency re-building ourselves is the key to the life of which we all dream.

Showing others love

like the many sides of a diamond we are multifaceted and resplendent in our wholeness.

We must be loved as a whole not as pieces.

Love  them fully as you so desired to be loved. You cannot love or hold a fragment or a piece, to do so will on fracture the rest.

The end of the matter

Embrace your mind, body, and soul. Love all of you.  No matter the extent of  your brokenness love you.

The greatest measure of achievement, is  to have lived, grown, and found meaning in existing and being. This means that our journey has taught us to value, and love ourselves and our experience, and to pass  that on to others that they too may live full lives of mirth.
