Four Religions

You used to say
"You have half of your life to choose
which road to take
and the other half
to pass through it.
Time is never too little,
you may be in a rush.
Time is never too much
but only it cannot be squeezed.
Before you start to go
where you have chosen
learn first where you are coming from
because if the beginning is the half,
the end is everything.
Create, because from where you come
and where you go
it isn't you,
your achievements on the way is you.
Don't think that it's scary
the tendency of giving,
it rather scares to take than to give.
Give yourselfe
Because what you give,
That is all that belongs to you.
Sacrifice is an offering
and the offering is a creation.
The value of sacrifice
you enjoy all by yourself.
Don't forget and don't get lost
in the road of creation."
You used to say...
What didn't you used to say?
