            Interview with GOD

  I dreamed I had an interview with God.
  "Come in," God said. "So, you would like to interview
Me?"

"If you have the time," I said. God smiled and said:
  "My time is eternity and is enough to do everything;
  what questions do you have in mind to ask me?"

  "What surprises you most about mankind?"
  God answered:
  "That they get bored of being children, are in a rush
  to grow up, and then long to be children again.

  That they lose their health to make money
  and then lose their money to restore their health.

  That by thinking anxiously about the future,
  they forget the present, such that they live
  neither for the present nor the future.

  That they live as if they will never die,
  and they die as if they had never lived..."

  God's hands took mine and we were silent for while and
  then I asked...

  "As a parent, what are some of life's lessons you want
  your children to learn?"

  God replied with a smile:
  "To learn that they cannot make anyone love them.
  What they can do is to let themselves be loved.

  To learn that what is most valuable is not what they
  have in their lives, but who they have in their lives.

  To learn that it is not good to compare themselves to
others. All will be judged individually on their own
  merits, not as a group on a comparison basis!

  To learn that a rich person is not the one who has the
  most, but is one who needs the least.

  To learn that it only takes a few seconds to open
  profound wounds in persons we love, and that it takes
  many years to heal them. To learn to forgive by
  practicing forgiveness.

  To learn that there are persons that love them dearly,
  but simply do not know how to express or show their
  feelings.

  To learn that money can buy everything but happiness.
  To learn that two people can look at the same thing
  and see it totally different.

  To learn that a true friend is someone who knows
  everything about them...  and likes them anyway.

  To learn that it is not always enough that they be
  forgiven by others, but that they have to forgive
  themselves."

  I sat there for awhile enjoying the moment.
  I thanked Him for his time and for all t
