I dreamed I had an interview with God.

�So you would like to interview me?� God asked.

�If you have the time� I said.

God smiled. �My time is eternity.�
�What questions do you have in mind for me?�

�What surprises you most about humankind?�

God answered...
�That they get bored with childhood,
they 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 in neither
the present nor the future.�

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

God�s hand took mine
and we were silent for a while.

And then I asked...
�As a parent, what are some of life�s lessons
you want your children to learn?�

�To learn they cannot make anyone
love them. All they can do
is let themselves be loved.�

�To learn that it is not good
to compare themselves to others.�

�To learn to forgive
by practicing forgiveness.�

�To learn that it only takes a few seconds
to open profound wounds in those they love,
and it can take many years to heal them.�

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

�To learn that there are people
who love them dearly,
but simply have not yet learned
how to express or show their feelings.�

�To learn that two people can
look at the same thing
and see it differently.�

�To learn that it is not enough that they
forgive one another, but they must also forgive themselves.�

"Thank you for your time," I said humbly.

"Is there anything else
you would like your children to know?"

God smiled and said,
�Just know that I am here... always.�
