TITLE: The beauty of existence By Cecelia Fresh 10/25/04 |

The fly the wasp and I. Yep, that was my family. Existing all together in my cozy cottage.
One might say, that is such a lonely day. But not for us, no not at all.
So I thought of going to the store to buy something to fill the space between the fly, the wasp and I.
Then I remembered, my contract with God to change my financials. That change happens from the inside, you are beautiful as you are God told me. Although I agreed with God, I always find myself in that lonely space referred to by society as "poor."
But I am rich in spirit is my reply. Just like the fly and the wasp. They don't have money to exist. And yet, I see beauty in their existence.
I wonder…do they try to fill that space too? That space commonly referred to by society as "poor" or "lacking".
Do they even know what poor is? Or maybe...poor has a different definition for them. Where did the word poor come from? Does it really exist?
All of these questions had I. So, there we were...the fly, the wasp and I.
I asked them and this was their reply...
There is beauty in existence and being rich or poor has nothing to do with it.
