Some say coveting is wrong, evil..
But everyone of us covets something....
Be it warm comfort from a friend when you're in need.
A simple smile hello on a lonely morning.
A beautiful sunny day for that special occasion.
A quiet meal with loved ones after a busy day.
The warmth of a fire on a cold Winter's eve.
Shelter from the Summer's storm.
From the moment we wake we are wanting something.
Coveting, needing... It is not evil to ask for some things in life.
To covet things that belong to another can be wrong.
To use those things, steal them, borrow without approval is wrong.
To want clear skies, clean air, good food and companionship.
That is not wrong, tis just human nature.
Forgive yourself for asking for the little things in life.
For those are the things that make life worth living. |
