TO PARDON THE UNPARDONABLE

G. K. Chesterton, when asked what the trouble with the world is, replied, "I am."

There. That's the shortcut answer to our problem du jour. Spiritual answers seem to cut and run when needed most...meaning when our ego is in charge. But don't most spiritual answers to daily problems boil down to just that: Have a problem? Don't even start, the solution is: I am.

Keeping it simple, stick with Chesterton:

Loving means to love that which is unlovable,

Or it is no virtue at all.

Forgiving means to pardon the unpardonable,

Faith means believing the unbelievable,

And hoping means to hope when things are hopeless.

-- G. K. Chesterton

We're on the right track, going in the right direction when we're seeking to give over, give up, give in. Ah, that to which our ego-victory mind will ever resist. What's the problem? I am. Which puts the lie to the current explanation for today's problems being "our darker angels." According to me, it is not  dark angels...it's our ego, plain and simple.  

Again, what's the problem? Again, I am.

Thank you.
