Two Questions

Ancient Egyptians believed that upon death they would be asked two questions and their answers would determine whether they could continue their journey in the afterlife. The first question was, "Did you bring joy?" The second was, "Did you find joy?" ~ Leo Buscaglia



The wonderful professor Leo Buscaglia is best know for his writings and lectures on love.
He said, "When we create joy for others , sharing what we have for the betterment of personkind, bringing hope to the lost and love to the lonely, we not only have lived, but we have lived for something."
   We create joy when we fill a child with the hope and dreams to explore the world, and continue their education; when we let them use their feet for walking and for dancing; and when we bring love to our relationships.
    When you find love, you have found joy. It is joyful to know that you have the love of another person. His message was to "Live fully in joy."
      Buscaglia said
        "Love is spontaneous and craves expression through joy, 
               through beauty, through truth, even through tears. 
            Love lives the moment; it's neither lost in yesteryear
               nor does it crave for tomorrow. Love is NOW!"
