On this day,
127 years ago, Baha’u’llah ascended to the next realm. The door of His Teachings remains wide open, to all who seek.
102 years ago, John F. Kennedy was born, in Brookline, MA. His work was unfinished and his potential far from realized, when the door to his life here was slammed shut, in 1963.
55 years ago, my youngest brother, Brian, was born, in Melrose, MA. His purpose here was to train us all in unconditional love. From the looks of how my family has lived, since his passing, in 1994, I’d say his work was successful.
This past April, a door to my working full-time closed. Since then, other doors have remained ajar. This is the truth behind- “When one door closes, another will open.”
Some doors can appear, from a distance, to be closed. Sometimes, that is simply the result of skewed vision.
Other doors, which one tries to close, remain open because they have contents within that are needed for a healthy life.
Then, there are those others, which are better off shut, no matter how much one thinks that what’s inside is desirable.
May my ability to choose the right doors remain strong.
May the right door open wide for you!

Exactly. My life has a weird graph. For a long time everything goes bad then suddenly like lightening everything turns better. It’s funny at times.

Well said. I hope the right doors always open for you.
Also, I’ve launched a Raw Poetry Contest- maybe you’d like to participate? I’d be thrilled if you would- https://magicquill17.wordpress.com/2019/05/30/the-raw-poetry-contest/

Excellent analogy – we are always making choices (opening or closing doors) and often the choices are easy (when the door is wide open or locked tight). The real trick is when the door is ajar and you have to peek inside and make a decision. Glad you have chosen wisely! I’m sure the choices will be difficult but with your good heart the way will be apparent!
