Tools

In the beginning     of our lives,           we are all given               a set of tools… The set changes     from person to person… It is how and when     we use them,           that determines               the outcome of our lives… Sometimes the same tools     can be used           either for good or for evil… It is simply how they are used… The greatest     of these tools           is love… We are all given love     in varying degrees… And when used with love,     all other tools,           can be used properly… It is said that with love,     all things are possible.           and without it,               nothing else matters… Our tools are given to us,     when we seem           to need them               the most… Some present themselves     early in life… Some present themselves     after good times… Some present themselves     after great loss and pain… © Jonathan Wikkins December 6, 2001 Revised March 5, 2008 All Rights ReservedWritten December 6th, 2001 © on Dec 06 2001 05:04 AM PST, David Michael Shurtleff   nature
