Apples and Oranges

1/21/17

Comparing apples
to oranges.

Yes, this is a
sentiment that says
you cannot compare
two unique fruits
that express themselves
very differently –
and if you like both,
does each not provide
an enjoyable experience?
Or – one may be your favorite,
and with the qualities
of the other –
you would rather not partake?

You are aware of the
differences between
these two fruits –
yet they share
a category of food –
both coming from a tree
that bears fruit,
two trees that grow
in soil,
needing water and sun
to produce these beautiful fruits.

And now do you not
look at these two
differing fruits –
both sharing the experience
of the life of a tree –
having more in common
from their roots
than the ending
expression of fruit?

And in your life –
you do not dwell
on the differences
between an apple
and an orange –
do you not accept
each of these
for what they are?

And as You Are
an expression of
All That Is –
is your expression
not unique to
Who You Are
here on earth-
but when you go back
to your roots
do you not see
you all are rooted
in Love –
are you not nourished
by the same life-giving Source
as your fellow be-ings?

Would you like it
if the only fruit
that you could enjoy
was an apple or an orange,
with no variation –
is it not more enjoyable
to partake in the
abundance of fruit?

As you honor the differences
of these Expressions of Life –
can you see that you All
are Expressions of Love
at your very core?

Celebrate the
uniqueness
and similarities
of You
of Life
of Love.

All Love.
All One.
Enjoy.
