One of the Presidents' first directives in his first 100days, was to allow even the most late term abortions to recieve the ok; along with the very many left leaning folks in support of the same, I cant understand whats so hard about supporting life? I suppose Michelle Obama, didnt feel the joy, at the first moment that she felt or found out that she had concieved a life? I suppose, that feeling of carrying a life, wasnt one of her greatest feelings?
I remember the moment, the event the following days with such wonder and anxiety that I could never have forgotten it. I believe that moment of wonder, had nothing at all to do with the person who was the father, but more to the wonder of the miracle itself. It had nothing to do with my circumstances, as it did to the miracle that was taking place within me. The thoughts of lack were so overshadowed by the foward looking adventure of a little life growing inside me, that nothing would have allowed me to distroy what I believed was given me.
From that moment of understanding, I knew that we were one. That in some ways, it defined what the Father and Son, union of the Holy Trinity truly meant. I was one with my Son, and yet he was Himself, completely separate of me.
Maybe that connection was all I needed to see the Christ, and to understand the meaning of Three persons in One God. Maybe thats what is missing when someone seeks to rid themselves of that Glorious Understanding. Life is not its situations, not its lack, not its logicial recouse. The acceptance of Life, is first a Gift, than a Responsibility, than a Gift, and than again the greatest responsibility. The acceptance of which, comes both the greatest Joy, and pleasure, as well as sometimes the greatest pain. But in the end, both Pleasure and Pain, is all about Life.
To try to eliminate either of those can not be done. And to assume a concious choice to rid oneself, of life, in its simpliest form, is to deny life itself. A Life can be discarded , by someone who has yet to love themselves enough to cherish it. You can discard only those things that have no meaning to you. Hence, one can only abort, that which
has no real meaning. I am sure that if asked, one would not abort a piece of ones body, without seeing that bodys purpose? I believe one would not discard a breast, as if it were not a part of the self? And even a breast is not the life of another human being? So when we know that a living being is part of who wer are, as well as having its own purpose, how then can it be discarded without being and acknowledged part of our life?
How can a mother , who takes such joy in the knowlege that she has concieved, not have the same feelings , if not for a sick mind at the time? And if one is not in the right mind, than we are giving choice to someone who is out of their mind.
